Major League Baseball is investigating an incident in which a Los Angeles Angels player directed a swipe at an Oakland Athletics fan on Thursday.
Oakland Police also reportedly are looking into the altercation.
The incident — which took place after the teams’ season opener in Oakland, California — was caught on camera.
“You called me a b****, huh?” Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon said to a fan in the stands.
“Yeah you did. Yeah you did! Yeah, motherf***er!” Rendon said before directing a weak swipe toward the fan’s face.
A closer look reveals that Rendon, 32, grabbed a piece of the fan’s clothing before the swipe. The fan dodged the swipe easily.
It’s not clear how the altercation began — or if the fan who Rendon confronted actually called him a “b****.”
