Actor Wendell Pierce criticized fan behavior at Game 5 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium, describing it as his "worst experience." He reported that fans threw objects at him while he spoke with a Dodgers fan. Pierce expressed disappointment that unruly fans overshadowed impressive player performances, including Gerrit Cole's pitching and Freddie Freeman's home runs. He stated that he would remember the negative fan interactions more than the game itself. This incident follows another case of fan misconduct at Yankee Stadium, where two fans were banned after a confrontation with Dodgers player Mookie Betts. The Yankees confiscated their season tickets and donated them to a pediatric cancer patient.
