Marcucci, 38, has no known prior arrests.

The demonstrator charged the field in the seventh inning of the Yankees-Mets Subway Series game in the Bronx on Friday — quickly getting tackled in centerfield by the NYPD, video showed.

Fans immediately broke out into chants of “USA!” when the man was brought down onto the grass.
