Once he stepped in to stands

He needs to be fined.
From the video

It doesn’t look like he stepped into the stands. However, he did grab the clothing of the fan.
If he does, then the fan needs to get reprimanded too.

fuck that guy. You could tell he was guilty of something with his stupid grin on his face.

People are way to protected these days, and they think they can say whatever they want. IMO alot of people just need a good ass beating.

The fan was an idiot  
US1 Giants : 3/31/2023 6:05 pm : link
but Rendon shouldn't have grabbed the fan or taken a swing at him.

It must be hard for players to ignore the drunk idiots that have only heckled them.
Fuck that asshole fan.

But, Rendon needs to realize that he’s in a no win situation there. The satisfaction of hitting the prick will only bring him pain. Suspension, fines, lawsuit, etc. Look back, smile, wave and maybe give them a kissy face like Barf in Spaceballs. It’ll piss the asshole off even more.
such a small

thing to happen, hopefully it just blows over with no further action. The fan was probably wrong (I have no idea what he even said if anything), Rendon was wrong - move on. Nothing big happened. Not everything has to blow up into some big thing just because there's video to capture it and the internet to spread it.
MLB should let him have it

Nip this in the bud. Oh he called him a bitch so thats ok ? what about you suck? what if he says something about how he is stealing money...where ever you draw the line you tell security they are right there - you cannot touch a patron period

you are a professional u must ignore a heckler - you see this in the NBA as well, they ignore some courtside comments but go crazy over others

Didn’t step into the stands. There is a walkway from the dugout into the locker room, that goes by the stands.
Really if a mlb player can’t take that

Then I feel bad for that player. You play a sport in front of fans, fans shouldn’t be disrespectful but if you can’t deal with that then you probably need anger management
Get over it

Who cares? What's it been ... almost 20 years since that Pacers/Pistons player vs fans brawl? Nothing surprises me anymore.

Literally NO one died here lol quit acting all appalled. It was pretty funny actually. This altercation was 100000x more interesting than this game between these two teams, and baseball in general.

One idiot I went to school with was like 0-22 in fights throughout his high school fighting "career"

You'd think by the 16th or 17th ass kicking (some girls beat him up too) he'd learn his lesson or change his ways. Nope. Made him even more annoying.

Route 9, were you the the little fat boy?

From the video, the fan called him a bitch...Really?  
Matt M. : 4/1/2023 9:35 am : link
That's what you flip out over? I think the fan is probably a moron, but that is hardly doing something wrong. Rendon completely over-reacted. His one saving grace is that his weak swipe missed. I don't think he was trying to hurt the fan, but just put a scare in him. I don't think Rendon gets out of this unscathed, but I don't think it warrants drastic action. Maybe a 1 game suspension.
Never touch a fan.  
Optimus-NY : 4/1/2023 9:41 am : link
Being called a bitch is what set him off? lol. He must be one then.

Banks : 4/1/2023 9:49 am : link
His little swipe at the end was a bitch move. Honestly, being called a bitch is very far down on the list of insults at any game I ever attended.
This incident is just multiple examples of what's wrong these days  
Matt M. : 4/1/2023 9:53 am : link
He's too sensitive to be a called a bitch? Players have endured FAR worse for decades. That doesn't make it OK, but this was something anyone could experience in just about any situation in life. Nobody's reaction to being called a bitch should be to threaten and then attempt violence.

Then there is the over reaction of fans and media to Rendon's over reaction. He clearly showed poor judgement. But headlines and tweets are saying things like he went into the stands, he lunged at fan, and worse. Before seeing the video, I thought he was in the stands and he took an real swing at the fan. Instead, he's walking his normal path to the clubhouse, never stepping into the stands and his "Swing" was more like the asshole that knocks the hat off a guy as things are being broken up. That didn't look like a swing in earnest. It made Will Smith's slap look violent.

The fan was an asshole? Sure, but was the fan worse than a lot of fans for over a century? He's a hometown fan riding an opposing player. That has always happened. If all he did was call the guy a bitch, then I don't have much of a problem with him. I think the guy's a moron, but I don't think this is anything out of the ordinary or anything we haven't seen or anything worth noting. It's not like he used real slurs or threatened the player or threatened the player's family, etc.

Bottom line is there is a lot of over reacting over the fan and Rendon. Rendon likely gets saved by that weak ass swipe not connecting. Even though he ended up doing very little, he was wring to cross the line with the fan by putting his hands on him in any fashion. He should be and will be suspended for that. But, I can't see this being significant.

Take a peek in the original post. I edited it because I know all your guys moves. But seriously other than you guys being predictable and saying the same crap over and over again, the kid was a little skinny emo kid. I don't know his parents had money so I guess he needed a thrill for something?

I only got into one scrap in high school and it was in 11th grade and I guess it was a tie?
That's the most action Rendon has seen in like 3 years
