Ichiro Imposter Interferes With Dustin Ackley's Hit During Mariners-Athletics Game (VIDEO)

Ichiro Imposter Interferes With Play In Seattle

An Ichiro Suzuki imposter attended Tuesday night's game between the Seattle Mariners and Oakland Athletics, but he might not be welcomed at Safeco Field anymore.

In the bottom of the third inning, Mariners second baseman Dustin Ackley ripped one down the right field line and it appeared as if he was going to turn it into a triple. However, the Ichiro imposter -- sitting in the front row -- reached out and and grabbed the ball. Umpires called the play dead due to fan interference, but still awarded Ackley third base.

Once the imposter realized he had just cost his team a big play, he put his head down on the railing in shame and covered his face.

According to MLB.com, the fan was temporarily removed by security, but he was later allowed to return to his seat. Scroll down to watch the video.
