Two Bronx boneheads got tackled by Yankee Stadium security on Tuesday night because the Yankees tried to stave off elimination in Game 3 of the American League Division Series against the Blue Jays.
The fans ran onto the sphere in the highest of the fourth inning with Vladimir Guerrero Jr. on the plate, delaying the sport several minutes while security personnel restored order.Â
The primary fan had been running through the outfield as security gave chase, with a security officer in a blue shirt coming from the primary base side of the stadium to tackle the offender as other security guards arrived to detain the person.Â
But as they subdued the primary intruder, a security officer may very well be seen quickly getting up and sprinting towards the infield because it became clear that a second fan had jumped onto the sphere.Â
The second fan was within the infield when he was tackled by security and detained.
It was not clear if the individuals who ran onto the sphere were simply searching for attention or had any particular reason to achieve this. Â
The second fan appeared to have writing on the front of their shirt and a QR code on the back.
The Yankees trailed 6-3 on the time of the pause within the motion and so they appeared to profit from the distraction.Â
In the next half inning, Aaron Judge hit a three-run home run off the left field foul pole to tie the sport and so they took a 7-6 lead in the underside of the fifth inning off a Jazz Chisholm Jr. long ball.
The Yankees trail 0-2 within the series to the Blue Jays after defeating the Red Sox within the Wild Card round.Â
If the Yankees win on Tuesday night, they may play again on Wednesday at Yankee Stadium at 7:08 p.m.
