Josh Reddick had Yankees fans screaming and breathing down his neck when he had his back against the right-field wall to catch Didi Gregorius’ long fly ball for the final out of the fifth inning Tuesday night.

But three innings later, Reddick saw their wrath in a different way.

After umpires overturned a call that took a hit away from Edwin Encarnacion in the eighth inning, Reddick said fans were throwing things onto the field. The Yankee Stadium PA announcer then asked fans not to do so, but it was already too late.

“I think I saw probably seven or eight water bottles out in the outfield, two baseballs got thrown from center to left,” Reddick said after the Astros’ 4-1 win in Game 3 of the ALCS. “So it’s scary. I don’t think a lot of people realize how dangerous that can really be. You throw a baseball hard enough and it hits somebody in the head and we’re not looking, it could do some damage to you as a player.

“So it’s definitely disrespectful, but at the same time, very unsafe.”

Reddick had drawn the ire of fans in the second inning when he hit a solo home run off Luis Severino to put the Astros up 2-0. He said he heard from fans when he got back to right field in the next half inning, “but they’re all yelling together at the same time, so it all kind of just mumbles together.”

But when objects started flying onto the field later in the game, Reddick wasn’t laughing.

“There’s no place in the game for that kind of thing, no matter what happens out there,” he said. “It’s just a matter of them being upset at the call they thought could have been the other way. There’s still no place for that in baseball.”
