Lulevitch disrupted play in the sixth inning of the Phillies' 3-2 loss to the Houston Astros during an Alex Bregman at-bat against Jose Alvarado.

Police said Phillies security and a Philadelphia officer witnessed Lulevitch entering the field of play.

Video on social media shows Lulevitch trying to scale the left field wall to escape capture. Another video appears to show one fan dumping a beer on Lulevitch while he attempted his escape.

Phillies fans relentlessly booed him from the start.

Lulevitch was arrested and later charged.
