The Chicago White Sox have been one of many teams rumored to have interest in free agent Dexter Fowler, so when Adam Eaton mentioned the outfielder's last name in a tweet Sunday, fans of the club got a little too excited.
@AdamSpankyEaton is this supposed to mean he's coming to the South side?

It turns out Eaton, the White Sox's 27-year-old outfielder, was actually watching golf and cheering on Rickie Fowler.

Although Eaton's spelling game wasn't on point, he certainly pulled a fast one on the fan base.
