It wasn't just baserunners who got caught stealing at Citi Field on Wednesday.
An off-duty NYPD cop trying to move to a better seat in the middle of a Mets game Wednesday night was arrested on trespassing charges.
Citi Field security guards busted Eduardo Cornejo slipping into a closer seat at around 9:15 p.m., according to a criminal complaint. Cornejo allegedly wouldn't return to his original seat, and was arrested after refusing orders to leave the stadium.
A Queens judge released Cornejo without bail Thursday. He will return to court next month.
A lawyer for Cornejo did not return calls for comment on Thursday.
