Anthony Rendon did not have a memorable outing, going hitless in his four plate appearances. This, however, could soon turn out to be the least worrying part of his outing as a recently surfaced video shows him scuffling with a fan in the bleachers.
You called me a b***h huh? Yeah m****f*****r" - Anthony Rendon
In the video, the Los Angeles Angels star is seen arguing with a fan in Oakland Athletics gear, presumably after some verbal jousting earlier in the game. Rendon seems to have taken exception to being called a slur by the fan. Further details about the matter are unclear.

Will Anthony Rendon be fined or suspended?
Looking at previous incidents and punishments meted out, it seems unlikely Rendon will be fined severely or suspended for his troubles. Even though he swung, he missed the fan by inches.

Amlan started falling for basketball after watching the San Antonio Spurs in 2012 and 2013. He watched as a collective of veteran legends, underrated misfits and a young defensive stud extended the Spurs' era of dominance with a team-oriented style, reminiscent of the aesthetic brilliance of 2011 FC Barcelona.
Amlan has supported the Spurs ever since, even after enduring the heartbreaks of Ray Allen's corner three and several years in the wilderness post-Kawhi Leonard. He hopes Victor Wembanyama will become the face of the league as Pop rides off into the sunset.
