MLB investigates video of Angels' Anthony Rendon grabbing shirt of A's fan on Opening Day

Major League Baseball is investigating a video making the rounds on social media that appears to show Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon holding a fan by the shirt through the bleacher guardrails. The incident occurred on Opening Day in Oakland after the Angels' 2-1 loss to the Athletics.

In the video recorded from behind, Rendon looks to have quickly caught the shirt of the fan dressed in Athletics colors, who was leaning down toward the Angels player. With a smile, Rendon appears to confront the fan while still holding his shirt through the railing.
