The Boston Red Sox took home a huge 6-5 comeback win over the Detroit Tigers on Sunday. Big Papi smacked a 9th-inning grand slam that was the stuff of legends, but the dramatic win will be minimized in part by the miscellaneous acts of douchebaggery perpetrated by one particular Sox supporter. Detroit’s catcher, Alex Avila, went yard in the sixth inning. The Tigers fan who caught the ball didn’t get a lot of time with her souvenir: this prick in the visor pried it away from her and heaved it into right field.

Whoever employs this guy should take notice: Yahoo Sports is reporting that this visor-clad douche was ejected from the game. Also, Yahoo reported that several fans who sat around visorman claimed he was hurling racial insults at Tigers fans around him all game, calling one African-American fan in a Prince Fielder jersey “Prince Fielder’s crackhead brother.” This classy fellow also reportedly called another African-American Tigers fan “Trayvon Martin.”
