People like to pick on LA. The truth is, the fans here are no different than anywhere else. The only difference is that Dodgers stadium has a big parking lot behind the bleachers where everyone can see people leave. When people drive off in other stadiums, nobody can see it. The other difference is that Dodgers stadium has this brightly colored seats that do not blend in with the crowd, unlike other stadiums. When seats are empty there, it really stands out. Watch other games and you too will see many people leave from the 7th inning on. And then notice the number of empty seats by really looking at the crowd and you will see the same thing
Someone just said that a fan ran on the field as well but was caught quickly. Also it's being reported that someone was yelling things to Josh Hamilton with things like: “Josh want a cold one?”, “Josh we gots Bud Lights up here!” Not to mention at least one “Al-co-hol-ic” chant when Hamilton was up. It's easy to see why the Yankees are hated so much. In 2004 they threw a ton of stuff on the field after Arod tried to knock the ball out of a pitchers hand. He was called out of course .If any of those beer bottles had late movement, please let Joe Girardi know who threw it. Could be a long night in the bullpen with Burnett pitching tonight.

Nothing wrong with razzing the team but throwing objects on the field and saying things like this are pathetic. You need to listen to WFAN if you think New Yorkers are proud of it.
So you think it's ok to heckle a man who is a recovering alcoholic? That's much different then going after Arod for using steroids in baseball.LOL 'it's being reported that people said mean things to Josh Hamilton...more than once!' What are you, 12?
Getting yelled at goes with the territory. Do you think A-Rod doesn't hear things everywhere he goes? ESPECIALLY Boston? Or is it OK to yell at A-Rod, but not Josh Hamilton?
EVERY player hears it from the crowd...the Jeters, the Big Papis, the Halladays...everyone. And when you have those like Hamilton, A-Rod, Bonds, etc., who actually give people something to yell about, it's worse.

I don't know . I've never heard it being reported. But you know it was bad when some in the New York media talk about it. You don't see fans dumping stuff on the field during a game on other ballparks as much as Yankee Stadium. That may happen in other ballparks but Yankee fans are becoming famous for it.
It's never been reported that he's been yelled those kinds of things at a baseball game. Now what I did just hear was a pretty disgusting song they sing at Yankee Stadium . Warning, Foul Language. This is not pretty but it happens at Yankee Stadium. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztPQieRucKE&NR=1
I can't . I don't know what has been said about Arod. I can show you more youtube videos of slurs being yelled out from Yankee fans during games. The Yankees should put a stop to it. It's not right for the fans that behave themselves.
