Cody Bellinger Was Almost Hit by Beer Can Thrown by Fan

During Friday night’s Dodgers vs. Padres game at Petco Park in San Diego, Cody Bellinger was luckily not the victim of a beer can to the head.

In the bottom of the sixth, the Padres’ Jake Cronenworth hit a fly out ball to center field.

Bellinger was there to catch the ball and give the Padres their first out of the inning. But, right after he caught the ball, a beer can was thrown onto the field not too far from where the outfielder was standing.

The can alarmed both Bellinger and left fielder Chris Taylor, who looked back in the crowd to try to figure out who threw the can.
