MLB Asks Yankees to Ban Fans Who Interfered with Mookie Betts in World Series Game 4

Major League Baseball doesn't want the two fans who interfered with Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts in Game 4 of the World Series on Tuesday night to be back in the stands for Game 5.

Per ESPN's Jesse Rogers, MLB has asked the New York Yankees to ban the fans from Yankee Stadium for Wednesday's game.

Rogers added that the fans will be refunded for their tickets.

The play occurred in the bottom of the first when Yankees leadoff hitter Gleyber Torres hit a flyball into foul territory. Betts jumped before hitting the wall to make the catch, but two fans grabbed at his glove attempting to dislodge the ball.
