From ESPN.com:

"A man wearing a yellow shirt ran onto the field from near the
right-field stands and headed directly toward the Phillies' bullpen
behind the center-field wall. Once the fan started climbing over,
Papelbon ran over and held him up on the fence until center fielder Shane Victorino came over to help."

It's always good to see Paps getting some work in during non-save situations.
