The viral moment showed the Drew Feltwell Run against a home drive hit by Phillie’s Outfielder Harrison Bader. He struck about four people to souvenir. Then he gave it to his son and shared in the special moment. But before the moment could sink in, an annoying female Phillie fan marched over to Feltwell and his family and demanded that they give her the ball instead.
“I can’t even repeat it in the air. She was very vulgar,” he remembered. “Scream right in my ear, you know, lotta bad words and ‘it’s my ball.’ It was her section and tried to tell me she was entitled to that ball.
Feltwell said he was trying to step down the situation as he gave the ball to the woman. She celebrated the victory shortly after.

He said he had no regrets of how he handled the situation.
“No, I think the world could use a little extra de-scaling,” Feltwell explained. “Everything is so tense. The world is pretty crazy and I don’t want to do anything like in front of my son or on the camera. It was hard to give the ball back, but it ended that situation.”
Internet -sleuths have tried to find out who the woman in the Phillies jersey was. Several have clarified the wrong people.
Feltwell said he hoped that nothing would happen to happen to her but wanted her to give the ball back.
“Well, I would very much like to get the ball to give back to my son,” he said. “But I don’t want something bad to happen to her. Certainly not happy with her. Our evening worked quite well afterwards. So can’t complain.”
Lincoln was able to get a package of souvenirs from the Phillies organization when the team tried to do it right. Bader also gave the boy an autographed bat.

“I hope Ball meant a lot to her,” Lincoln said.
