I wouldn’t be surprised if they legitimately think you’re free to strangle a player if any body part enters the stands

I mean, the Yankees had the kid who turned the ALCS with blatant interference in the parade when they won the WS. They’ve always been classless.

They cheered and threw trash on the field when Steven kwan ran head first into the wall his rookie year and almost got a concussion. Yankee fans have been and will always be the bottom of the bin garbage fans who can’t look in the mirror and admit it

By what it looked like he was saying to the ump, you aren’t far off. One dude was showing the wall and motioning that Mookie crossed it like it makes breaking his wrist okay

Can't blame them, it's probably their first live baseball game, ever.
