A fan who stormed Great American Ball Park on Tuesday night was tasered before being ushered off the field during a game between the Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Guardians.
Entering the bottom of the ninth, the fan, who was wearing a Johnny Bench jersey, jogged into the outfield and stood next to Guardians outfielder Tyler Freeman. He ran away and pulled off a back flip before getting tasered by security on the field.

The Reds and Guardians will wrap up the series at 7:10 p.m. ET Wednesday at Great American Ball Park.
