SAN FRANCISCO -- The rivalry between the San Francisco Giants and Los Angeles Dodgers turned violent when a Dodgers fan was fatally stabbed near San Francisco's AT&T Park after the two teams played, police said on Thursday.

The victim, 24-year-old Jonathan Denver, was wearing Dodgers gear when he and the group he was with got into an argument Wednesday night with another group of people, one of whom was wearing a Giants hat, San Francisco Police Chief Greg Suhr said. The two groups exchanged insults about the Giants-Dodgers rivalry before the argument escalated, and Denver was fatally stabbed.

"While this is one of the most storied rivalries in baseball ... nobody's life should be at stake whether they are at the game, leaving the game or six blocks away," Suhr said.

from same article:


The violence comes just three days after a teenage football fan was attacked at San Francisco's Candlestick Park during the San Francisco 49ers 27-7 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Other violence broke out at the game on Sunday despite an increase in security. The stadium was also the site of two shootings, beatings and fights during a preseason game two years ago.

How many fights that have ended in arrests/severe injuries is this now between Giants and Dodgers fan. Wasn't a Dodgers fan stabbed on Opening Day?

Ravage!!!

Unbelievable. Seems it wasn't that long ago when the Niners were considered to be one of the class organizations in the league. Now, it's like Oakland. You don't want to go to the stadium because of the gang mentality. It's pathetic.

No kidding. The Bay Area is getting a bad (worse?) reputation.

Yankees/Red Sox is a pretty big rivalry too but I don't recall people stabbing people over it.
