The Cubs trounced the Arizona Diamondbacks in a spectacular win on Sunday. Kris Bryant hit the MLB's longest home run of the season off the video board and Miguel Montero got a grand slam. But one overly-excited, drunk Cubs fan walked away with a felony trespassing charge instead of a win.

Christopher Hilton, 27, ran onto the field on Sunday afternoon at 3:25 as the Cubs played the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to the Sun-Times. He was intoxicated and we assume, very enthused when he charged onto the field.

The Schiller Park resident was arrested after he was taken down by security on the field and charged with felony criminal trespassing in a place of public amusement, according to authorities.
