The most egregious display of fan interference I've ever seen in my life. I'm not even a sports guy, let a lone a baseball guy, but holy fucking shit. (www.reddit.com)

Capobianco, a Yankees season-ticket holder, said he knew he would be in trouble but chose to grab and open Betts' glove nonetheless, telling ESPN that he and Peter often discuss this exact scenario: If a foul ball comes their way, they're going to do what they can to help their team.

"We always joke about the ball in our area," Capobianco, 38, said at a local bar after the game. "We're not going to go out of our way to attack. If it's in our area, we're going to 'D' up.

Capobianco and Peter were escorted out of Yankee Stadium but said they were told they would be allowed back for Game 5 on Wednesday.

These two guys committed to the bit till the end. So fucking drunk they thought they could convince the ref the ball was out. Amazing

if you have enough disposable income to watch any yankees game from the front row, let alone a world series game, you are guaranteed to be a despicable piece of shit

Fuck da yankees

This detail is overlooked, in my opinion. Is it rude to force open the man's glove to rip the baseball out? Debatable. Is it rude if the man in question plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers? Obviously not! That's just New York culture; read a book.

well there was the Beach Ball incident in the EPL but that was an accident that can mostly be blamed on the ref. This is far worse.

The Yankees just put out a statement, they've been banned from game 5.
