Summary
- A fan spilled his drink while attempting to catch a home run.
- The errant drink doused the fan, but the Tigers took a 1-0 lead.
- This is the second viral fan moment at Comerica Park this series.
A Tigers fan found himself in a sticky situation on Thursday morning during the game against the Angels at Comerica Park. As outfielder Wenceel Perez sent a home run over the right field wall in the second inning, a spectator attempted to catch the souvenir ball.
However, the fan, holding a beverage in one hand, was unsuccessful in snagging the ball. It bounced off his drink, leading to a significant spill that drenched his shirt. Adding to his misfortune, another fan secured the home run ball.
Despite the messy outcome for the fan, the play resulted in a 1-0 lead for the Tigers. This is the second notable fan-related moment of the series, with a previous game featuring a viral clip of an Angels player showing minimal effort on a routine play.
