Stray Bullet Falls Through Tropicana Field Roof, Hits Fan

Chris Perez Can't Stop Saying True Things About Cleveland Fans

Polish Riot Police Vs. Croatian Hooligans—Who Ya Got?
We knew Polish police came prepared for Euro 2012, pants-pissing sound cannons and all. And we expected Eastern European fans to make trouble, because that's what they do.
