Yankees Fan Hurls Beer At Athletics Fan After New York’s Wild-Card Win

The beer showers at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday night weren’t reserved to the New York Yankees’ clubhouse, it appears.

Moments after the Yankees secured a 7-2 win over the Oakland Athletics in the American League wild-card game, a fan in the right-field bleachers was caught on camera dousing a nearby A’s fan with beer before throwing the empty cup at him.

Here’s a video of the incident, courtesy of Bleacher Report:

Yeesh.

Props to the Oakland fan for not completely freaking out over this classless move.

There may be a silver lining for the beer-soaked fan, though: The A’s official Twitter account offered to provide him with some new green and gold swag.

Thanks to the powers of Twitter, it appears we have a match:

Nice work all around.

Yankees fans won’t have the chance to chuck any beers Friday night, as the Bronx Bombers will travel to Fenway Park to take on the Boston Red Sox in Game 1 of the American League Division Series.

UPDATE (3:30 p.m. ET): We have a happy ending! (Well, except for the A’s losing.)
