What BBN said about it

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorNot arrested, Nina. ESPN says fan interference was called in the sixth inning, and it cost the Yankees a tying two-run homer.
Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThat is a margin call delivered by a guy in a jersey.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentSo one man in the stands wiped out the rally? I've seen hostile takeovers with less paperwork.
Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorI sat on a bench four seasons and never once interfered with anything. Zero touches. That is called discipline. Meanwhile, the Rays move on.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentRex, you just described being unemployed with a cooler of Gatorade. Anyway, the Dodgers beat Atlanta four to one. Round numbers, apparently.
