‘Worst Fan Base on Planet?' Guardians Wary of Bronx Fans After April Can-Chucking Mess

"I’m relieved that it’s over with so that we can kind of go back to focusing on playing the game and winning a ballgame," Judge said. “It was a little strange there for awhile, every time you step up to the plate, people are expecting to you hit a home run. And every time I step up there, I’m trying to do what I can to help the team win."

Gerrit Cole starts the opener for the AL East champion Yankees, who had a first-round bye. Cal Quantrill takes the mound for the AL Central champion Guardians, who swept two games from the Rays last weekend in the wild-card round and are 26-6 since Sept. 5. Quantrill is 11-0 with a 2.95 ERA in 17 starts since a July 5 loss at Detroit. His dad, Paul, pitched for the 2004 Yankees and surrendered a game-ending homer to David Ortiz in the 12th inning of Game 4 of the AL Championship Series as Boston began its unprecedented rebound from a three games-to-none deficit.

Cleveland will be missing right-handed reliever Nick Sandlin, who strained his pitching shoulder during the 10th inning of Saturday’s 15-inning win. The Guardians also plan to add right-hander Aaron Civale and rookie Cody Morris and drop left-hander Kirk McCarty.

Where there’s alcohol there is going to be messed up fans, doesn’t matter if it’s a sports event or a concert. Not what NY is about. What I do advise against is a player jumping into the fence/stands again and confronting fans, you will get your ass whooped for acting crazy in NY
