The case is also historical: The World Series has been played for more than a century. And somewhere was Freddie Freeman, the World Series MVP and two-time champ. “Not just technically, but also my professionalism.”He was, at last, a World Series champion.

Two New York Yankees fans were banned from Wednesday night's World Series game in the Bronx after they crossed into the field of play and interfered with Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts. Fans interfere with Mookie Betts #50 of the Los Angeles Dodgers as he attempts to catch a fly ball in foul territory during the first inning of Game Four of the 2024 World Series against the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium on Tuesday in New York. “Last night two fans were ejected from Yankee Stadium for egregious and unacceptable physical contact with Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts," the Yankees said in a statement on Wednesday. "The safety and security of players, fans and Stadium staff is the foundational element of every event held at Yankee Stadium, and it cannot be compromised." The Yankees went on to win Game 4, 11-4, and Game 5 is set for 8:08 p.m.

OSHU CITY, Japan — In Oshu, the small rural town where Shohei Ohtani grew up, baseball is as much a part of the landscape as the farmers’ fields and low-rise hills surrounding it. As they watched Game 4, which aired at 9 a.m. Wednesday morning in Japan, Yasuo Sakamoto, 74, and his wife Keiko, 70, wore the Dodgers jerseys and hats they got when they visited Los Angeles this summer to see Ohtani play. “Even at my age, I’m really awed by him,” Yasuo Sakamoto said of Ohtani. “In Japan when there’s news about Ohtani, it’s bright news. The two teams will play Game 5 in the best-of-seven series at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday — and Japan will be watching.

As Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts attempted to catch a foul ball in the first inning of Game 4 of the World Series on Tuesday, two Yankees fans tried to rip the ball out of his glove. The bizarre 'only-in-New York' moment took place in the bottom of the first when Gleyber Torres led off the inning with a pop fly to right field. Follow along for live coverage of Game 4After Betts nabbed the ball, one Yankees fan in an away Aaron Judge jersey wouldn't let go of Betts' left hand until he pried it loose. The effort was all for nothing as the umpire ruled Torres out from fan interference and the two men were escorted out by stadium security. This marks the second time this series Torres has been on the wrong end of a fan interference call.

How about saying you were there when Freddie Freeman took over a World Series in his own Freddie-esque way? And it looks exactly like that dude who trots — or sometimes limps — out to first base every night in this World Series. • Easy as 1-2-3 — We’re three games into this World Series, and Freeman has homered in all three of those games.

Two New York Yankees fans were ejected from their right field seats during Game 4 of the World Series after ripping the ball out of Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts’ glove. Betts’ glove landed on top of the outfield wall as he caught the ball, and two fans sitting against the wall reached for the ball. One fan tried to take Betts’ glove off his left hand while the second fan swatted Betts’ right hand away. The first fan pried the ball out of Betts’ glove, but the ball fell onto the field. Fan interference was called on this play where a Yankee fan tried to take the ball out of Mookie Betts' glove after an out.
