A crude Pittsburgh Pirates fan was seen getting handsy with a female supporter during their defeat to the Washington Nationals on Thursday.
As Pirates outfielder Jake Mangum prepared to bat at PNC Park, TV cameras captured the man in question zealously groping what appeared to be a companion in the background.
The woman was initially laughing as he grabbed and shook her private parts on the broadcast, before she briefly appeared to move his arm away in a playful manner.
It is unclear whether the pair knew they were on TV at the time or not, given they were in the backdrop of a close-up shot of Mangum.
Fans were left in disbelief after footage of the vulgar moment went viral on social media.
One wrote on X: ‘Why even get a room?’

Another posted sarcastically: ‘Classy!’
While a third joked: ‘This used to be a family show.’
The two Pirates fans in question were ultimately left disappointed after their team were beaten 8-7 by the Nationals.
The incident served as a reminder of another obscene moment last July, when two Philadelphia Phillies fans sparked outrage at Yankee Stadium in New York.
Despite being surrounded by other fans during a game, the man appeared to be performing a sexual act on the woman.
In 2022, two fans were caught out enjoying more than just baseball in upper echelons of Rogers Centre – with security filmed apprehending them.
And back in 2012, reports emerged that a couple was caught having sex in the bathrooms of Yankee Stadium during a game against the Tampa Bay Rays.
