    Re: 2024 World Series: New York Yankees vs. Los Angeles Dodgers

    Two Yankees fans have been banned from attending Game 5 of the World Series after interfering with Dodgers star Mookie Betts in Game 4.


    A one game ban? That's all you're giving these betas? People have been banned for life for less, but 2 dudes getting physical with a player when he's trying to make a play only gets a game?

      Don't worry, these guys will be hearing it for the rest of their lives. Maybe not from fellow Yankees fans, but they aren't exactly going to receive Jeffrey Maier-like praise for heroism here either.

        I saw the video again and the way that fan grabbed Mookie's wrist, I don't even get what they were doing. It wasn't even bang-bang where you could argue "well both the players and fans went for it and in the scuffle things happen". Like, Mookie clearly made the catch and then they decided to open the glove to get the ball like replay doesn't exist or the umps don't have eyes.


        Again, I have never seen anything quite like that, it is unacceptable and I would ban then for life. You don't drop the hammer here, the next idiot(s) my go even further since "it will cost me only 1 game".

          I hope it's just a ban for now and in the offseason or what ever they'll decide on something further.

          I wonder if it's "SSH privilege" where they didn't want to fully ban a season seat member. If I'm a player, I'd be mad at that ruling and would bring it up to the PA. As a visiting player you now have proof that if a fan does something dangerous/interferes with play, there's little consequences. Yankees should be held liable if something happens because they didn't enforce anything.

          1 game ban, but since he's a SSH he got his money back for the playoff game he already had tickets for...If you 1 game banned someone else, there's no telling if/when they're going to the next game anyways. You absolutely need to ban both of them for life.

          That's what I don't get. Everyone's talking about the guy who grabbed the ball, but the other guy was trying to hold Betts arm back as his friend grabbed the ball, that's a mugging right there.

            Oh they already are. I think the reporter that wrote the story called them a "beaut" on social media. They're actually being praised.

              They need to be made an example out of though because both fans literally said they would do it again. If they were streakers and ran past Mookie, they'd throw the hammer down and both would be barred from Yankees Stadium.

                And in this day and age, stupid things like that get publicity.

                If they haven't already, you don't think if those guys started an IG account or YouTube channel or something that they wouldn't suddenly have a following of fellow stupid people?

                This wasn't an accident, and it's not something they even fake apologized for.

                "Influencers" have done stupider things for clout and seeing something like this could easily make someone else want to do other stupid things at a sporting event.

                  After LA went up 3-0 in the series, I gave up on a game seven. So now I will settle for a game six and the Dodgers winning it all in front of their fans. Plus, if it goes beyond five games, theres nothing quite like November baseball.

                                All I ask is that this series goes 7 and one of these teams suffers a devastating loss.
