Fan interference in baseball is a topic that has sparked countless debates and controversies over the years.
One of the most memorable incidents occurred during the 2003 National League Championship Series when Chicago Cubs fan Steve Bartman deflected a foul ball away from outfielder Moisés Alou.
With the Cubs leading 3-0 in the eighth inning, this moment became a pivotal point in the game, leading to a dramatic shift in momentum.
The umpire ruled there was no interference since the ball had crossed into the stands, but the incident left a lasting impact on players and fans alike.
