a delay, order was restored, but in the top of the ninth, after a leadoff single, the Yankees attempted to turn a double play. However, on a very close play, Orlando Cabrera was called safe at first base. This was the third time in the game that the frustrated New York fan base had a close call go against their team, and they again showered the field with debris, causing NYPD officers to begin streaming out of the dugouts and take the field in full riot gear. The police remained on the field, near the first and third base walls, for the remainder of the top of the ninth. November 19 – The Malice at the Palace: one of American sports' most infamous incidents. Near the end of an NBA game between the Indiana Pacers and the Detroit Pistons at The Palace of Auburn Hills, a fight broke out on the court between the Pistons' Ben Wallace and the Pacers' Ron Artest after Artest fouled Wallace from behind. As the on-court fight died down, a fan threw a drink at Artest while he was laying on the scorer's table. Artest then ran into the stands, as did his teammates (most prominently Stephen Jackson and Jermaine O'Neal), causing a huge brawl between players and spectators. Some fans came onto the court, leading to additional fights with Pacer players. The remaining 45 seconds were called off and the Pacers, who led by 15 points at the time, were awarded the win. Pacer players and coaching personnel were pelted with beverages and garbage as they raced into the locker rooms. Nine players received a total of 146 games worth of suspensions, the bulk of it aimed at the Pacers, and five fans were banned from attending Palace Sports and Entertainment events for life. Five Indiana players and five fans were charged with assault and battery. 2005 April 12 – In the 74th minute of a UEFA Champions League match between crosstown rivals Inter Milan, A.C.
