Fan interferes with deep Yankees fly ball in World Series controversy
This is as close to a Jeffrey Maier or Steve Bartman incident as you’re going to get.
With two outs in the top of the ninth in Game 1 of the World Series on Friday night, Gleyber Torres smacked a ball deep to left field that appeared to be a homer.
Instead, though, a fan had reached over the wall and caught the ball well over the left field wall.
It was called fan interference and was confirmed on review — as the umps got the call right.
A truly wild moment in a tense ballgame in to start the Fall Classic.
