NEW YORK — A baseball fan who jumped from the upper deck at Yankee Stadium onto the netting behind home plate was sentenced Tuesday to three years probation.

Scott Harper, 19, of Armonk, N.Y., pleaded guilty in August to reckless endangerment following last season's plunge at the stadium in the Bronx.

Harper dropped about 40 feet onto the large net, which stops foul balls from flying back into the stands, during the eighth inning of an Aug. 10, 2005, game against the Chicago White Sox. The game was delayed for four minutes while he was removed.
