Fans in attendance for Game 1 of the National League Championship Series in Los Angeles were treated to a 2in for the home team. The Dodgers took down the Chicago Cubs, 5-2, behind homers from Chris Taylor and Yasiel Puig and a respectable (if a little underwhelming by his lofty standards) five innings on the mound from Clayton Kershaw.
But not everyone in attendance got to watch the entire game. Mia Khalifa — who has outed a Cubs player in the past for repeatedly DMing her Twitter account — was there sitting behind the plate, but according to a video caught by another fan, she was removed from Dodgers Stadium after allegedly punching someone in the jaw.

Details of what happened are pretty scarce, but the person who posted the video alleges that Khalifa was tossed after someone tried to take a selfie with her. There’s not much else out there to corroborate this claim — there’s no video of the altercation that led to her removal — but Khalifa took to Twitter early on Sunday morning and appeared to refute what this person said.
Fake news

Khalifa did not clarify whether this is “fake news” because the allegation she punched a fan is false, or if the video of her lacks context about why she was removed from the game.
