Adam Dunn belted the 400th home run of his career on Saturday night, which is a massive feat for any slugger to accomplish. Unfortunately, not all White Sox fans were able to enjoy it.
Dunn’s homer came at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City and fittingly landed in the fountains beyond the outfield bleachers. When the ball came down, a Chicago fan wearing a Kevin Youkilis jersey sprung into action and dove into the fountain to retrieve it.
Diving into the fountains at Kauffman Stadium is illegal, and the gentleman was promptly arrested, removed from the premises, and reportedly fined $2,500. The arrest would probably be worth the trade-off of being able to own a piece of history, but according to CSNChicago.com the fan was forced to give up the ball. Apparently the Kansas City police do fault a man for trying. But hey, we’ve seen people arrested for much less at baseball games in the past.
