Zack Greinke's Anxiety Disorder Mocked by Yankees Fans.
The 35-year-old Astros pitcher has admitted to having social anxiety
and depression in the past.
According to NJ.com,
fans at Yankee Stadium were
heckling him about his disorder
before Game 4 of the ALCS.
One fan was even ejected
from the game by police.
Greinke, who was in the bullpen at the time, later said he wasn't aware
of the mocking.
The Astros now have a 3-1 series lead after winning the game, 8-3.
This is not the first time Yankees fans have caused issues during the
team's playoff run this year.
In the previous series, Twins pitcher Tyler Duffey claimed he was cursed
at and had beer thrown on him.
Astros outfielder Josh Reddick also said fans tossed baseballs onto
the field during game 3.
I will pull the team off the field if we get in that situation again where bottles are being thrown and balls are being thrown and it becomes unruly, Astros Manager A.J. Hinch,
