Cleveland Guardians outfielder Myles Straw got right up in a Yankee fan’s face and told him to “hit me, motherf***er” in the middle of a game over the weekend … an altercation that resulted in spectators chucking trash in his direction.
The incident went down during the Yankees’ walk-off win over the Guardians on Saturday … after home fans allegedly mocked Steven Kwan for diving head-first into the outfield wall.
Straw was visibly upset with one of the fans in the front row … climbing up on the fence and jawing at him.

A new video shows what exactly Straw said during the exchange … in which he yelled, “hit me, motherf***er” repeatedly.
Of course, fans went after Straw again on Sunday … calling him a “crybaby” and “Peter Parker” in reference to his wall climb.
Straw went off on Yanks fans in the locker rooms after the game … referring to them as “the worst fan base on the planet.”
No word on whether Straw will face any punishment for the altercation — but bad interactions with fans are usually a big no-no.
New York ended up sweeping the series with Cleveland, 3-0 … so the fans got the last laugh.
