Game 1 of the World Series was a tense affair heading into the ninth inning at Dodger Stadium. The Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees are tied 2-2 against hard-throwing reliever Michael Kopech at the top of the Yankee lineup.

A swing at bat and a catch against the left field wall gave the game an iconic moment.

Twist? The capture was made by a fan.

According to Statcast, Torres’ fly ball to left field flew 383 feet when it came to rest in the outstretched glove of a fan sitting in the front row of bleacher seats. Torres was certainly hoping to score points. The Dodgers’ players insisted it was a two-way call and pointed toward the fence almost simultaneously.

According to major league rule 6.01, if a fan reaches into the field and touches a fly ball that a fielder could catch, fan interference is ruled and the batter is removed from the game. A fan touching a fair ground ball results in a ground rule double, awarding the batter and any baserunners two bases.

The ball could not be caught by Dodgers left fielder Teoscar Hernandez; That much was clear. Less obvious: Would the ball have gone over the fence if the fan had not caught it? After a brief review, the umpires decided the ball would remain in the park and Torres was placed at second base.

The fan, wearing a Dodgers hat and jersey over a blue hoodie, was removed from his seat by Dodger Stadium security guards.

The Yankees did not score in the inning. After an intentional walk to Juan Soto, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts replaced Kopech with veteran right-hander Blake Treinen.

Treinen got Aaron Judge to fly out to end the inning and the game was tied 2-2 heading into the bottom of the ninth.

The Dodgers will face the Yankees in the World Series for the first time since 1981.
