Legendary pitcher Pedro Martinez has been around the block more than a few times.
In a recent conversation with Yahoo Sports, Pedro was asked about fan bases across baseball.
Of course, Pedro is most well-known for his time with the Boston Red Sox.
While he said Red Sox fans are the “most loyal” in baseball, he admitted that the “craziest” fans are – surprise, surprise – Philly fans.
“The craziest one, nobody compares to Philly,” Pedro said.
“Nobody can come near Philly … Philly is the most crazy and loud and passionate … It gets so loud that you can feel the uniform of your jersey kind of vibrate,” he added.

There’s no denying that right now, Citizen’s Bank Park is the greatest home field advantage in all of baseball.
The Philadelphia crowd in October has resembled that of an SEC football crowd.
It’s one big party during Phillies game – and the team certainly sems to thrive off the crowd’s energy and excitement.
Some critics may point out that Phillies fans aren’t too loud or loyal when the team is struggling … But hey, let’s focus on the positives.
Who do you think are the craziest fans in baseball??
Who has the best home field advantage??
