Yankees Fans Goes Viral After Ripping Ball From Mookie Betts
However, the Dodgers have dominated the series to this point with a commanding 3-0 lead over the Yankees. That dominance continued in Game 4. The Yankee trailed early in the first image after a two-run home run from Freddie Freeman, who likely will be named World Series MVP if the Dodgers go on to win.
Yankees hitter Gleyber Torres tried to make up some ground in the bottom of the first but popped the ball into right field into the glove of outfielder Mookie Betts. A couple of Yankees fans interjected, wanting to help their team win at all costs. One fan held Betts' glove while the other tried to rip the ball out of his hand leading to one of the most wild World Series moments in recent memory.

As you might expect, fans went wild with reactions on social media.
"Lmaooooooooo get that Yankee fan all the beers at whatever bar he's about to be at because he's definitely getting the boot," one fan said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
"Bro paid thousands of dollars to watch the top of the 1st inning and get kicked out," another user added.
Stephen A. Smith Goes Scorched Earth on Aaron Judge
One of the biggest reasons that the Yankees have been unable to gain any ground in this World Series, has been the continued struggles of their star slugger, Aaron Judge. After smacking 58 home runs in the regular season, Judge has yet to go yard in this series. ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith says that he has been "disgusted" by Judge's performance.
"I am so disgusted with Aaron Judge," Smith said on "First Take." "...What the hell is going on with Aaron Judge? Ladies and gentlemen, this man, Aaron Judge — who had batted .336 with an on-base percentage of .509 with runners in scoring position during the regular season — the man is one-for-nine with no RBIs, and six strikeouts in the World Series. He's hitting .150 in the postseason."
