Some fans should leave their gloves at home.
Monday night in San Francisco, the Pirates were leading the Giants 4-3 with nobody on and two outs in the bottom of the eighth inning. Buster Pose hit a pop fly into the right field seats and Gregory Polanco reached into the stands and appeared to be able to make the play.
That is, until a fan wearing a Barry Bonds Pirates jersey leans into Polanco, who missed the catch. It was bad break that didn't last long; karma quickly caught up to the fan.
After several minutes of review, the umpires declared Posey out and the fan ejected. The Bucs eventually won the game 4-3.
