Yankees fans rip the ball from Mookie Betts

play

NEW YORK – No matter how expensive World Series tickets are, it doesn't give fans the right to encroach on the field.

Also not taking the ball away from Mookie Betts.

Two New York Yankees fans were escorted from their seats along the right field line after one was called out for fan interference on a foul pop fly off the bat of New York Yankees leadoff batter Gleyber Torres in Game 4 of the World Series on Tuesday night.

Right field umpire Mark Carlson immediately signaled fan interference. But that wasn't the end.

A fan sitting next to the one who called for the interference tried to pull the ball out of Betts' glove with a sheepish grin on his face. The other fan seemed to complain that the ball was inside the seating area, making it a fair game.

He neither got a baseball nor won the argument. They were quickly escorted from their seats by stadium security.
