There Was An Extra Tool In Today's Braves Tool Race, And This One Got Arrested [UPDATE]

Like most ballparks, Turner Field hosts a silly race between costumed characters that represent some sponsoring interest. In the Braves' case, it's the Home Depot Tool Race. Today's Tool Race featured an extra competitor, a fan who raced in from center field and made it to the infield before being sacked by security. In a rarity, we actually have broadcast footage of the individual being dealt with by cops and hauled off the field, thanks to CSN Philly's required lower-third graphic and reader for "Respiratory Asthma Awareness Night." We'll try and update this post with the inevitable cell phone videos that come streaming in.


Update (3:29 p.m.): Here's some video shot by Daniel S.
