A moronic Yankees fan tried to yank Mookie Betts' glove off during an out in World Series Game 4

One of the dumbest fan encounters of all-time went down during Tuesday night’s Game 4 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium.

As Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Mookie Betts leaped up in the air to snag a ball going toward the stands, a Yankees fan quite literally grabbed Betts’ glove and tried to rip it off his hand.

Yes, the fan tried to take Betts’ glove off his hand and then settled for taking the ball out of his glove and throw it out. Another New York fan grabbed Betts’ hand during the ordeal and seemed to unnecessarily involve himself.

"Well, A for effort."

Of course, this did not go over well with the umpires, nor should it have. Both fans in question were seemingly ejected and New York was assessed an out for the fan interference.

Why this person decided to do this is beyond us, but this is the stuff that takes away from the magic of live sports.

When you make yourself part of the game for the wrong reason, you’re more a loser than either of the competitors.
