Fans fight over trash can homer from Cubs' Russell

MLB.com

Three fans went a little too far for a piece of memorabilia on Sunday as the Colorado Rockies and Chicago Cubs squared off at Coors Field.

A home run from Cubs shortstop Addison Russell landed in a garbage receptacle in left field during the game's fifth inning, and the trio had no qualms about battling one another to get at the trash ball.

After a bit of a pushing match, security stood by to keep things from getting rowdy, as one of the fans dug through the garbage in hopes of finding the souvenir.
