I once went to a NHL game with my 16 year old cousin in my hometown of Montreal and my cousin scrambled with fans for a puck that went in the stairs next to him, he got the puck and got scolded by an adult fan saying he was gonna give to a kid. My cousin got that puck fair and square, he also gave the perfect answer to the guy, he said: "Well, I'm a kid of my own, so you did good". I will always remember that.
don't know why you're proud of that behavior; whenever i see those people, they always look like horrible selfish people. i know they don't give a $hit about manners; they only care they got the ball 1:20 and your cousin wasn't a kid, he was a teen
4:19 I don't care about any of these teams, but I'm glad that play was called an out after they reviewed it. That's justice for how annoying that kid behaved.
that's not justice, he just didn't let the PRO MLB player (opposing his team) catch it. no shit it's an out, that's not due to his behavior, that's due to the fucking rules of the game you child.
lol hes literally just a kid gloating the fact that you're all bitching about it means the kid got what he wanted. The ball was called out regardless and he's clearly rooting for the other team, let him have a little fun. Players do worse shit all the time when they make plays.
It was all in good fun and it was a pretty nice snatch. Yeah, it is annoying but the kid was probably rooting for the other team and felt good about taking it away lol. Annoying, but it was still called an out.
Technically if the ball is over the stands, it’s fair game for the fans and player. However, fans can’t reach over the stands to interfere. The Twins-Yankees catch was legal. Dodgers and Cubs wasn’t
The guy at 3:08 is a legend. Fans are allowed to go for a ball as long as it is in the stands. They can fight a player for the ball. He saved his team an out. Legend.
@@lordBritish1 Absolutely incorrect. The rules state that fans can’t interfere with a ball in play, ie, over the guard rail. Once the ball crosses the invisible line into fan territory, it’s every man for himself. It’s a sort of home field advantage, since savvy home fans won’t interfere with their own team’s players (though that happens, too).
@@kyleprenot4572 Doesn’t matter. You can’t reach into the field of play like that. If it’s in the stands, it’s fair game. But reaching over is interfering.
@@wildcard8720 Exactly... and he caught the ball that the Yankees hit, before the defender could get the Yankees out. It is inside of the walls, so it is just ruled as a foul ball.
@@mkingms still imagine your about to get the other team out and then a fan from the other team grabs it right befor you can get it and you lose like 100k dollars because u lost over a fan that grabbed a ball from you
"Took it out of that little guy's glove." Umm...No he didn't. The guy caught the ball fair and square. Being a little kid doesn't mean he's entitled to it.
@@CoalPoggers no. Everyone is having a good time. People get so frustrated with others when they refuse to give baseballs to little kids. Unless the ball was intended for the kid, it’s fair game. He didn’t rob him of a good time or nothing, just a ball.
@Humpty Dumpty never seen a comment section with so many neanderthals. xd "baby almost hurt, me catch ball, me do good, tell the other Neanderthals i will"
So I’m gonna be honest and mostly kept this a secret for more than a decade. When I was about 25, I went to a mariners game in Seattle and decided I’d walk straight from the gate to the left field bar. A buddy of mine met up with me about the 2nd inning. After about eight $9 beers, and during what I think I was the 7th inning (don’t know because I don’t remember a single inning), the beach ball came out, bounced around a little and was directly over my head... I proceeded with all of my god given might to blast that ball straight into left field. The game stopped, the left fielder popped the ball, and security was all over. I was called every name in the book. A douche, a drunk asshole, etc. But you know what, not one single person ratted me out. Not one person helped security find the guy that did it. Idk, I think that was actually more punishment, because to this day, I’ve thought what a douchey move that was. At least one hundred eyes pointed straight at me. Moral of the story: don’t drink $9 beers...
Damn That’s pretty funny. Btw does anyone have a link to a video of him doing that? I’m sure there’s a recorded game of him popping a beach ball onto the field
Right, he wasn't paying attention to the kids behind him at the time he caught it. He did do a kind gesture and give it to a little kid, which was nice.
@@Jackherbert10 Yeah she's lucky but she is also ungrateful. If the guy didnt get the ball in front of her, her phone would be crashed. But she's mad at him...
Lindy Ruff, future hall of fame coach in the NHL gave my brother his stick in the early 90s when he was a sabre…. and then my other brother decided to play hockey, and my parents were so broke that they cut down Lindy Ruffs stick for my brother to use, and 3 practices in he decided he hates hockey
He had all rights to catch that ball, it was in the fan territory. The player was actually the one who was leaning into the other “territory” (dramatic word, but it gets the point across).
@Skeeter Valentine no it’s not, he was just pranking her. She even threw it away in the end so no one would get sick. The other reporter even laughed at the incident. It’s all in good spirit.
@Skeeter Valentine No she didn't want to eat that you idiot. It was completely cold because she had been carrying it around for ages and had no intention of eating it.
@magiesq I frikin hate the whole "give the ball to a kid" schtick... my dad took me to ball games as a child and I NEVER got a foul ball, partially because he was cheap and even though we could afford better seats, we sat nosebleed. Now I have my own money and get good seats, and all be damned, if I get a foul ball, I'M KEEPING IT.
MANCHESTER UNITED soccer is so boring bro, it’s literally just a bunch of sweaty guys running around trying to put a ball in a hole. baseball not only takes more skill than soccer, but it takes an immense amount of focus and intelligence
Went to a dodgers game few days ago and the 6 rows across from is were fill of college kids (we think). Sll game long they pretty played musical chairs, stood up on the aisles, played music loud on their phones and blocked our view of the game. We had to ask them multiple time to please sit down so we can pay attention to the game. They took all the fun out of the day.
I was about to say that, I’m a Mets fan, I watch all their games, I have never seen him mad, I know he isn’t with us anymore, he’s on the Marlins, but when he was, I do not recall him ever having an outburst like that
It irks me so much when people go out of their way to catch a foul ball while holding their infant child. Like they are actively putting their baby’s life in danger for a ball
Wait, wouldn't it have been the same outcome either way? Either it's an out, and there was nobody on base. It's the 9th inning, with no overtime expected. Either he gets a free ball and it's an out.......or it's an out, and play continues.
Lostmymind1 yes the outcome would’ve stayed the same but the kid was celebrating as if he helped out his team. When in fact all he did was get kicked out of the game.
The girls taking the pictures were probably doing it because the stadium put up "tweet us a selfie of you at the game to win". I don't think you can hear it in this clip, but that has been in so many of these "worst fans" "worst stadiums" videos. They're literally doing it as an interaction with the stadium...this is what happens when people remove context.
Even if she was just taking a photo for the memories or just for fun it wouldn’t make her a bad fan. She doesn’t need to be engaging with the game at every single second in order to prove she’s a good/real fan.
@@duffin3503 and? I go to other teams games and I’m not gonna buy their merch tf. She might just be a cardinals fan and just wanted to watch a baseball game.
The ump ejecting the player made me laugh because it looked like he was going after Pagan in the on deck circle. Im sure Pagan was saying "what did I do?", he was never one to let an umpire know his displeasure in strike zones so I'm sure he thought the ump was coming at him. He also did have a big smile on his face afterwards.
That was 100% ok. Never interfered with the space of the field, the player tried to make a catch reaching into the stands. Every defensive player should know this is a very possible outcome for a pop foul ball going into fan territory and out of the field of play when they are the away team. A home team defensive player maybe should expect smarter fans
I think the rule of thumb is if the ball is coming toward you and the player can physically catch it, you better get tf out the way. So legal or not he’s still an idiot for doing that.
4:27 he’s probably the kind of kid that makes really cringy jokes at school and wonders why nobody laughed. Like, did he think he looked cool when he did that finger shaking thing?
How is there no mention at 3:52 that the fan is holding a baby drinking from a bottle with the other arm?! And the baby doesn't skip a beat!! Classic!!
now there's netting right down to the foul poles in most parks so most of these are old clips ...and what bad naughty horrible fans ,paying $20 bucks for a beer and $100 bucks for line seats all so some guy on a $100 million contract can't make some frivolous catch in a 9 inning game with 161 more games to play
When granderson was on the Yankees he was one of the nicest guys to play and he literally signed for just about everyone and had convos with everyone. That fan that touched him had no business doing that
He nearly beat him clear to death upon the back. It’s a wonder the player walked away from that vicious attack. I’ll never recover from the horrific footage of the calculated attempt at murder I witnessed in that brief clip.
I get when an adult takes it from a kid. But when there’s two grown ass adults goin for a ball who ever gets it, gets it. Gender don’t matter. Also those girls weren’t ever pirate fans lol
1:14 That reminds me of one time where I was like 9 and me and my dad went to a local minor league game. One of the guys popped a ball up, it went right between my legs, and under my seat. I looked under it, and all I saw was a hand grab it and a guy walk away with it. I was bummed, but just forgot about it after the next pitch. Apparently a few of the fans around the guy starting guilt tripping the guy, and told his 4-ish year old son to go over to me and give it to me. I felt kind of bad taking it, because that kid looked kinda sad. But then, one of the guys in the dugout comes into the stands, shakes the kid's hand, and gives him a ball with all the team's signatures on it. Turns out he was the team manager, and he came over to me and shook my hand. He gave me and my dad free tickets for the next game we went to. I still have that ball in my closet today.
this should be renamed MLB Saltiest Players/Announcers. took it out of his glove? more like he caught the ball barehanded while holding a baby, baseball player got outplayed.
1:19 the dude grabbed it before it got to the kid with the glove. He did not take it out of the kids glove. Then he gave the ball to another kid, but yeah include him as the worst. Smh
@@thomaspetty4507 exactly. he knew there was kids with gloves around him, he didnt have to stretch that far sideways when he knew they had their gloves out
Yeah the kid was right in the path of the ball, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that he would’ve caught it. Dude may a grab and snagged it out of the air. Good catch. Then turned and gave it to a kid even small then the other kid. Really nice of him to do that after making that barehanded catch.
Agree. Like the one where the ball was just barely fair and the fan reached over and grabbed it... I think most of us if we were sitting there would try to grab a ball that was coming that close that we thought was foul
I actually got a ball taken from me when I was about 8 So the guy threw the ball for me to catch and it was a bit above my head and it went over through that little hole in the bottom of the seat and the guy behind me just took it and my dad asked the guy for it back but he was cheering with his buddies and all I know is I hated that man
Baseball needs a wall of shame or video reel they play at every stadium of people who steal the ball from other people during that stadiums games. Knowing your face would be plastered on the big screen every game at that stadium would be a huge deterrent.
Damon Hargroves okay if thinking that you should avoid doing something that potentially puts your kid’s life in danger over a baseball makes me a pussy, then okay dude.
he didnt do s he doesnt even know anyone look how the camera was only on him and nobody else. and everyone wild about how she was "catching it with her phone" you all outcasts and fake .
Sometimes you just keep your eye on the ball and track it to your glove, if you're focused on the people around you, you won't be making a play on anything.
he's celebrating catching the ball over a major league player and having a great time with some light teasing. So many miserable humorless people in the comments talking about this.
Dude does what every fan does and reaches for the ball, and just because a kid is behind him, does not mean that he is a bad fan, he is doing what everyone one of us would do, and he ended up giving the ball to a kid.
Pretty much, nobody is looking around to see if there's any kids awaiting a ball that was just smoked in their direction, and more people trying to catch the ball means less unsuspecting fans will get nailed by one.
@Lighthouse in the Storm Nope. The ball was in the seating area and the fan had a glove but you think he's somehow not allowed to catch a foul ball? Give your head shake.
The worst baseball game I’ve been to was a tigers vs Indians game when I was 8 or 9 and it was like 90 degrees and the day, but one of the worst parts was this absolutely obnoxious woman in front of us. She was shouting stuff like “beat those f*ckers!” It was so bad we had to leave in the 6th. I hope nobody has to sit in front of people like that
Reminds me of how I got my baseball at an Astros game when I was a kid. My amazing father decided to leave his 7-year-old alone while he got hotdogs I got nervous by myself and went looking for him and got nailed in the side of the face by a foul ball. some guy nearby saw what happened helped me up and gave me the ball. Good times.
