Major League Baseball is investigating an incident concerning Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon after he clashed with a fan during his team’s Opening Day game against the Oakland Athletics on Thursday.
In a video posted to social media, Rendon appeared to grab a fan by the shirt which led to a heated back-and-forth exchange. Rendon also seemed to aim a swipe at the fan too in the alarming video.
There are no videos that appear to show the lead-up to the incident, although Rendon was infuriated with the fan after his Angels fell 2-1 to the Athletics at the Oakland Coliseum. In the footage, Rendon appears to make a grab towards the fan’s jersey and said, “What’d you say? You called me a b****, huh?”
