Another fan runs on to the field at Citizens Bank Park
If you were watching Monday night's Phillies-Braves game on local television here in Philadelphia, or listening on the radio, you heard that a fan ran on to the field at Citizens Bank Park in the bottom of the eighth inning. Although the fan wasn't shown on the Philadelphia broadcast, it was shown on Fox Sports South in Atlanta.
Another fan runs on to the field at Citizens Bank Park

If you were watching Monday night's Phillies-Braves game on local television here in Philadelphia, or listening on the radio, you heard that a fan ran on to the field at Citizens Bank Park in the bottom of the eighth inning. Although the fan wasn't shown on the Philadelphia broadcast, it was shown on Fox Sports South in Atlanta.
In a rare show of positive feelings towards an opponent, Phillies fans gave Braves left fielder Matt Diaz quite the ovation after he tripped up the intruder. Security apprehended the fan soon thereafter.
Here's video of the incident. Hat tips to TheFightins.com and the many other bloggers who got the footage up on YouTube.
Wish barack would stay in dc- The President of the United States is welcome in Philadelphia any time. And you philsfansince1946 should be ashamed of yourself. If you don't like our country, move to Somalia.— JoPal
Comment removed.- I wasnt cheering for Diaz i was cheering for The dude in the red, he should take Mike Bell's spot on the eagles he made two guards miss.— cje246
- Bravo to Comcast Sportsnet who never shows the idiots running on the field. Shame on SportSouth!— ak3883
Why do idiots keep doing this? Is there any real punishment for running onto the field?— wylies99- It was a joke Jopal. If you don't have a sense of humor, you should move to Russia.— madnvocal
- Looked like Charlie from Sunny in Philadelphia, except in red instead of green— momzer
- JoPal...Lighten up. As far as the security, i couldn't stop laughing. Good, cheap entertainment.— davidjones
- i suspect jopal was born in somalia... or maybe Kenya.
- glad to see that COmcast refuses to show idiots that run onto the field. how are these "fans" getting onto the field unscathed?— boris

- Comment removed.
- What no taser this time? Disappointed! I wonder if it was the same person as last time... When the identity be made public?— Murrayag11
I wonder if the guy came dressed this way, or if he snuck in the outfit? And is this something you brag about later? "Hey, I dressed like a poor Spiderman and got tripped by the outfielder! It was awesome!" I wish these glory-hounds would stop making Philly fans look like the local government officials (i.e. idiots).— verve
