Security guard levels rogue Red Sox fan as he rushes field at Fenway Park
Once in a blue moon, a MLB security guards get to live out the moment they’ve spent their entire careers training for: protecting players from an on-field threat, which usually means a streaker.
One lucky guard got to do so Wednesday night as the Tigers played the Red Sox at Fenway Park, and absolutely blindsided a rogue fan. Better yet, the “streaker” was fully clothed.

The fan was able to evade security for a while, but as almost always happens in these situations, he he went down hard when finally caught. The guard may have sacrificed his glasses for the cause.

The fan had to know the hit would come as some point, but he might not be prepared for how much it’ll hurt tomorrow.
