His name is Laurence Leavy, better known as Marlins Man, a familiar face at Major League Baseball games . A lawyer and passionate baseball fan, he is easy to spot thanks to his signature orange Miami Marlins shirt and cap, which he often wears even when other teams are playing.
His appearance in the stands coincided with a game full of surprises.

One of the game's most debated moments came in the sixth inning, when a hit by Anthony Volpe that appeared to be a home run was reviewed over possible fan interference. After reviewing the play, the umpires ruled it a double, a decision that sparked anger among some Yankees fans.
