Haven't seen the footage yet.

Similar occurrences have generally seen players being taunted by the fans and then going back after the fans in the stands. LA had an incident like this in Chicago a couple of seasons ago.

Boston had an incident like this in Yankee Stadium in 1986 when a fan stole Jim Rice's hat. The almost the entire Red Sox team save Marty Barrett went after the fan (Barrett said "Somebody had to watch the bats").

Neither game was forfeited... so there really isn't precident... but if the fans coming on the field then that is simply inexcusable.
