Mets fan roasted for throwing back Francisco Alvarez home run at Wrigley Field: ‘Grow a spine man’
NY Post
A man in the outfield bleachers at Wrigley Field might be guilty of impersonating a Mets fan.
SNY showed a video clip Saturday of an unidentified man wearing a Mets-logoed hat and shirt celebrating that he wound up with the ball from catcher Francisco Alvarez’s fifth-inning home run.
But as Cubs fans, including one sitting right next to him who appeared to be a friend, urged him to throw the ball back onto the field, the fan complied and gave up his souvenir.
