"I hate to be a snitch, but someone is playing Fortnite in Fenway right now," Red Sox blogger Jake Roy said on X.

NBC10 Boston reached out to the Red Sox for details and a representative wrote back, "We were doing some testing for an event in the near future and more details will be available later."
While the representative didn't share more information about the event, they did say it wasn't this month's Call of Duty League tournament being hosted at MGM Music Hall.
