"Last night two fans were ejected from Yankee Stadium for egregious and unacceptable physical contact with Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts.

The safety and security of players, fans and Stadium staff is the foundational element of every event held at Yankee Stadium, and it cannot be compromised.

Tonight marks the final home game of year, and we want every ounce of our fans¡¯ passion on display. Yankee Stadium is known for its energy and intensity, however the exuberance of supporting one¡¯s team can never cross the line into intentionally putting players at physical risk.

The Yankees and Major League Baseball maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward the type of behavior displayed last night. These fans will not be permitted to attend tonight¡¯s game in any capacity.¡±
