San Francisco Giants followers and Los Angeles Dodgers followers had a touching second of unity throughout Recreation 5 of the NLDS Thursday evening in expressing their collective disdain for a Giants fan sitting behind residence plate.
The fan, who was carrying a jersey, hat and necklace/chain of some kind, continuously got here to his ft and waved his arms exuberantly. Such exercise made him extremely seen on the tv broadcast, and social media customers voiced their displeasure together with his conduct.
“Not loving having the worst fan to have ever attended a baseball sport sitting immediately behind residence plate tonight,” tweeted Bay Space chef and Giants fan Richie Nakano.
“Can all of us collectively bounce by our screens and punch that Giants’ fan behind residence plate? Repeatedly,” asked a Dodgers fan.
“That Giants fan behind residence plate standing up and wailing his arms throughout actually each pitch is probably the most annoying human being on the face of the earth,” wrote one other Twitter consumer. “Think about shopping for tickets over a thousand {dollars} simply to finish up sitting behind THAT man.”
Some tickets behind residence plate exceeded $3,000 earlier within the week.
The fan appeared to go away his seat someday later within the sport, sparking hypothesis that he had been eliminated by stadium safety. As you possibly can see within the two movies under, he was not in his normal spot (on the left of the display screen) for the ultimate at-bat of the sport.
The Giants didn’t instantly reply to an SFGATE request for touch upon if the fan’s late-game absence was voluntary or not.
