Yankees Fan Tries to Rip Baseball From Mookie Betts’ Glove During Game 4 of the World Series: Watch

The fan was reportedly ejected from the game

The New York Yankees successfully keep their World Series chances alive on Tuesday, Oct. 29, but one person who did not help was the fan who tried to rip a baseball out of Los Angeles Dodgers star Mookie Betts’ glove.

During the bottom of the first inning of Game 4 at Yankee Stadium, Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres hit a deep foul ball to right field. Betts, 32, ran to the wall and leaped to make the catch. A fan interfered though, grabbing the right fielder’s glove and trying to remove the ball. A second fan appeared to grab Betts' wrist. The ball popped out of the glove and into the stands.

The umpires wasted no time calling Torres, 27, out on fan interference. A league official told The Athletic that the fan and the one sitting beside him were ejected from Yankee Stadium.
