A Philadelphia teenager arrested after running onto the field wearing a red costume during a Phillies game was sentenced Thursday in Family Court to 80 hours of community service.

Sean Hagan, 17, pleaded guilty to charges that he ran onto the outfield at Citizens Bank Park during a game against the Atlanta Braves last month. Security guards apprehended Hagan after Braves leftfielder Matt Diaz tripped him.

Later, Hagan walked out of custody dressed in the full-body red spandex suit he was wearing when he ran onto the field. His parents have apologized for his actions and said he would be punished.

In May, police used a stun gun to subdue another teenage fan who had run onto the field at a Phillies game. - AP
