New York Yankees fans that ripped the ball out of Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts' hand in the World Series finally face consequences.
All baseball fans remember in game 4 of the World Series when two Yankees fans grabbed Mookie Betts hand and tried to rip the ball out of his glove and ended up being ejected from the game.
The two Yankees fans that tried to rip the ball out of Mookie Betts hand have been banned from all MLB stadiums
The two fans, Austin Capobianco and John P. Hansen, were banned from attending game 5 but the season ticket holders that own the seat they were in were allowed to attend.
In a letter from an MLB official obtained by The Post, the league wrote to the banned fans in part: «Your conduct posed a serious risk to the health and safety of the player and went far over the line of acceptable fan behavior. Based on your conduct, Major League Baseball is banning you indefinitely from all MLB stadiums, offices, and other facilities.» - MLB
The letter apparently also stated that if they are caught at an MLB game or on the property of any stadium they will be immediately remove and subject to being arrested for trespassing.

Most agree that this is a fair consequence for what these two fans did at the World Series as even the season ticket holders that own the seats they were in agreed that they should not be allowed to attend anymore games.
The season-ticket holder was said to support the decision to prohibit the two fans from attending any more games. -martin
