Jason Heyward Says He Didn't Hear Racial Slurs at Busch

Cubs right fielder Jason Heyward acknowledged he has heard racial slurs during his career.

But Heyward said he didn't hear any Monday, contrary to four tweets posted during the Cubs' game against the Cardinals at Busch Stadium saying slurs were audible on the TV broadcast. (via Chicago Tribune) 

This story grew some legs as the day went on with New York Daily News first reporting people heard Jason Heyward getting taunted by St. Louis Cardinals' fans with racial slurs. Cubs outfielder said he didn't hear anything like that on Monday. I'm going to believe the people on Twitter honestly. It's tough to hear things like that in the stadium, and those mics are so damn good nowadays they can pick up on everything.  Heyward went 0-for-5 tonight as he's struggling badly to begin his Cubs career.
