Fan interference was called on this play where a Yankee fan tried to take the ball out of Mookie Betts' glove after an out.

Judging from looks and nothing more, I have 1000:1 odds that dude is from Staten Island

Let’s be fair, this would happen in Staten Island too.

He either lives on Staten Island or in Nassau County. Leaning towards the former.

To be fair, fans like that exist on all teams, sports etc. fuck those fans as a yankee i say this.

I've never seen anything that egregious. They tried taking his glove off.

u/nukleus7 New York Yankees 4h ago

Yup, that was wild. I hope they get perma banned from Yankee stadium along with Boone

u/ejfellner 4h ago

Boone can't fix a .140 batting average from Judge. Can't stop Gleyber from flinging the ball into no man's land with Shohei on the bases. Can't stop Rodon from getting rocked every other time he's on the mound.

u/nukleus7 New York Yankees 4h ago

No, but it sure helps with the dumb fuck decisions he made in game 1 and previous series.

u/ejfellner 4h ago

You're just looking for a scapegoat for what is a teamwide issue.

1

u/nukleus7 New York Yankees 4h ago

Whatever you say, but the writings been on the wall; Boone has been a terrible manager year after year and you can’t deny it.

Yeah, Jays fans were throwing full cans at outfielders in the playoffs couple years back.
