Crazy baseball fan runs onto the field during live play

Just when we think we've seen everything, crazy Saturday night baseball hits us with another gem.

In what may be the weirdest moment we've seen all season, a fan not only ran on the field during the Mariners 5-4 win against the Cardinals at Safeco Field, he nearly disrupted a live play in the outfield.

For all the countless times a fan has run on the field during a baseball game, rarely, if ever, do we even see them on television, let alone getting this close to the live action.

This time though, the fan was literally ten feet from Mariners left fielder Seth Smith as he camped out under the fly ball. It's almost a shock to the system to watch it the first time because it's such an awkward and unexpected sight. Thankfully though, the fan kept on running and eventually ended up in handcuffs. That's the best possible outcome under the circumstances.

Perhaps the craziest thing about it is the fan seemed completely oblivious to what was going on. It doesn't seem like he planned on getting close to the action at all, he just ended up at the right place at the right time to get his 15 seconds of fame.

Hopefully it's worth it to him, because he's likely to spend anywhere from 15 minutes to 15 hours in the slammer.
