Part 2/7:
On October 17, 2023, during Game Four of the World Series at Yankee Stadium, Mookie Betts found himself the target of bizarre and reckless fan behavior. As he attempted to catch a fly ball hit by Gleyber Torres, two fans crossed the line from enthusiastic supporters to would-be assailants. Not only did they interfere with Betts' play, but one of them even grabbed his wrist in what can only be described as an unhinged attempt to disrupt his focus.
The chaos left Betts momentarily unsettled, as it could have led to serious injury during a high-stakes moment. Fortunately, he managed to catch the ball, but the incident sparked outrage among baseball fans and players alike.
