Fan fights with Adrian Gonzalez over foul ball
A fan tries to wrestle the ball out of the glove of Adrian Gonzalez.

Let it go man.
That’s advice that can be given to a fan that attended the Los Angeles Dodgers and Colorado Rockies game on Monday night.
During the top of the fifth inning, Tom Murphy of the Rockies hit a fly ball into the stands down the first base line. Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzalez had a play on the ball and reached into the stands to make the catch.
Seemed routine enough.
The only problem was there was a guy that wanted to make that catch as badly as Gonzalez did.

After Gonzalez clearly makes the catch, the fan in a Boston Red Sox hat attempts to wrestle the ball out of his glove.
He goes after it for a couple of seconds before realizing that he was not wrestling a fellow fan for the ball, but rather the Dodgers $154 million first baseman.
The look on the fan’s face is a priceless one when he realized his mistake in judgement.
On the bright side, he should make a few highlight shows, so at least he has some fame at the expense of his own embarrassment.

hey, Gonzales reached over into the fan area, the fan did not go over or into the field of play. Fan has the right to go for the ball. Now if the Fan is a fan of that team he should have enough baseball IQ to let the player make the play ( ie: Bartman in Chicago...). IMO, Gonzales really has no complaint. Remember all his bluster about not ever playing in Arizona due to SB1070, but it was all talk as he has never sat out a series, or the All Star Game due to his statements.
I know you don't. I have been watching you.
You're right, I don't drink.
