Brett Gardner might have to start bringing his batting helmet out to left field as things are getting ugly in the Bronx.
After Toronto Blue Jays slugger Jose Bautista deposited a solo shot into the Yankee Stadium seats, a fan attempted to throw the ball back onto the field, but instead found the back of Gardner's head.

Bautista's home run extended the Blue Jays' lead to 2-0, with Toronto looking to complete its first sweep in New York since 2003.
