During Friday’s game between the Dodgers and Giants, a couple of fans ran out onto the field holding flowers. One of them problem wishes he didn’t run up to Angel Pagan.
As the intruder made his way to Pagan, the Giants outfielder held out his hand in a friendly gesture. However, when the fan was within reaching distance, Pagan grabbed him and took him down to the ground, drawing applause from many on hand at AT&T Park.

Since the game involved the Dodgers, that meant Vin Scully was on the microphone to describe the incident and he did so just the way you would imagine, in fantastic form.

Hats off to Pagan for his take down of the flower-bearing intruder. Also, this serves as a reminder that we are nearing the end of being able to listen to the dulcet tones of perhaps the greatest sports broadcaster of all time.
