Fan who threw beer can at Orioles' Kim gets conditional discharge, is banned from games for a year

The fan convicted of throwing a beer can at Orioles outfielder Hyun Soo Kim during last year’s American League wild-card game was sentenced to a conditional discharge of 12 months of probation and will be banned from all major league baseball games for a year, during which time he can’t be within 500 meters of the Rogers Centre.

Ken Pagan, who pleaded guilty to criminal mischief last month, was also sentenced to 200 hours of community service, half of which he has already served, according to the Toronto Star.

A beer can thrown from the left-field stands in October’s wild-card game barely missed Kim as he made a catch near the left-field fence in the Orioles’ extra-inning season-ending loss in Toronto.
