Punched-Drunk Fan

It wasn't quite the same as Rick Monday snatching the flag from protesters, but it was startling to be sure.

In one moment, a comebacker is bouncing off the fingers of Eric Gagne's pitching hand. In the next, the Dodger trainers and coaching staff are rushing onto the field to see if Gagne is okay.

Just then, a dull roar is rising from the outfield stands. Security is running into the outfield. And Jason Romano, far from his center field position, has tasered a fan at the feet of left fielder Brian Jordan. The guy just dropped.

To witness the crime and the punishment in the same instant was very unnerving. I'm appalled and I'm relieved.

That Romano, though - he's got some range.
