NEW YORK — Two New York Yankees fans which were thrown out from Game 4 of the World Series for disrupting play were excluded from Game 5 on Wednesday night.

The league and club released a statement saying the two fans involved in a ball being popped out of Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts’ glove would not be allowed into the game.

“Last night, two fans were ejected from Yankee Stadium for blatant and unacceptable physical contact with Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts,” the statement read. “The safety and security of players, fans and stadium staff is the fundamental element of any event held at Yankee Stadium and should not be compromised.

“Yankee Stadium is known for its energy and intensity, but the exuberance of supporting a team can never cross the line and intentionally put players in physical danger.”
