A fan at Yankee Stadium was ejected from Game 4 of the World Series after interfering with a foul ball during Tuesday night's game. Los Angeles Dodgers right fielder Mookie Betts had initially caught Gleyber Torres’ pop-up in the first inning, but a fan in the first row wearing a gray Yankees’ road jersey grabbed Betts’ glove with both hands and pulled the ball out. Torres was immediately called out on fan interference.
This marked the second time in the World Series that Torres' at-bat was impacted by fan interference. In Game 1 at Dodger Stadium, with two outs in the ninth inning, Torres hit a fly ball to left field, and a fan reached over and caught the ball, resulting in Torres being awarded a double.
The Dodgers, who are one win away from their second title in five years, held a 2-0 lead on Freddie Freeman’s two-run homer in the top of the first off Luis Gil.
