This is hysterical - the TSA doesn't have the right to detain anyone for any purpose....ever. I hope someone communicates up to the MLB folks that they do not need to participate in these checks (especially of their cars!!), and any attempt to detain them by a TSA person can be ignored.

I wonder if those fools are harassing the students and staff at Florida Tech too.
