Cleveland Guardians outfielder Myles Straw blasted New York Yankees fans Saturday after an ugly incident at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. 

Fans in the notoriously rowdy right field bleachers at the stadium pelted Cleveland outfielders with high-priced concessions in a chaotic scene moments after New York rallied for a 6-5 win.

The chaos started with one out in the ninth inning when Isiah Kiner-Falefa scored a game-tying double that went over the head of Guardians outfielder Steven Kwan, who crashed into the left field fence.

Yankees fans then started hurling insults at the injured player, said Guardians outfielder Oscar Mercado. Those insults prompted fellow outfielder Myles Straw to scale the left field wall to confront a fan.

"When someone goes headfirst into a wall … just take a breath and let him get his feet under [him]," Straw said, via The Athletic. "His chin was messed up. His forehead was messed up. Just give him a breather. … When someone’s hurt, that’s not something to joke about."

Straw couldn't recall his exact words when he approached the fans.

"If I were to do it again, I probably would have said the same thing," he said.
