Major League Baseball has taken decisive action against two fans who interfered with Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts during a World Series game at Yankee Stadium. The league has banned the fans, identified as Austin Capobianco and John P. Hansen, from attending any games at big league ballparks.
In a letter sent to the fans this week, MLB cited the incident on Oct. 29, 2024, during Game 4 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium, where the fans intentionally and forcefully grabbed Betts, posing a serious risk to his health and safety. The league deemed their conduct as crossing the line of acceptable fan behavior.
