A father who was screamed at by a woman who ‘stole’ an MLB ball off his young son has issued a desperate plea to the general public.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last Friday (September 5), a match between the Marlins and the Phillies at LoanDepot Park in the MLB made headlines.<\/p>\n

Phillies outfielder Harrison Bader sent a home run soaring into the crowd, and as is traditional in any baseball<\/a> game, if a ball goes into the stands and someone catches it, it’s usually theirs to keep.<\/p>\n

As the ball soared out of the field over half a dozen fans scrambled to intercept it, but it was ultimately picked up by a dad who gave the ball to his delighted son Lincoln, ten.<\/p>\n

A woman, who initially fumbled an attempt to get the ball, marched over to the family and demanded the piece of memorabilia.<\/p>\n

The whole incident was caught by the TV cameras<\/a>, with footage showing the woman claiming: “You took it from me. It was in my hand.”<\/p>\n

Drew Feltwell, the son’s father has been speaking to the press following the viral incident, and has issued a desperate plea to the public.<\/p>\n

He told<\/a> USA Today: “Please don’t do anything to that lady. Leave it alone. You know, somebody knows her and can talk to her, that’s different. But God, I don’t want people breaking in their house and stuff like that. The internet already messed her up pretty good.”<\/p>\n

Previously, Feltwell spoke about what the woman said<\/a> to him during the confrontation at the match.<\/p>\n

He told<\/a> Fox Sports: “I can\u2019t even repeat that on air. She was very vulgar. Screaming right in my ear that, you know, lotta bad words and, \u2018That\u2019s my ball.\u2019<\/p>\n

“That was her section, and trying to tell me she had the right to that ball. The screaming and yelling kinda got to us, and I just wanted her to go away. So, that\u2019s how she got the ball.”<\/p>\n

Feltwell handed the ball over to the woman, which left a bad taste in everyone’s mouth after learning it was Lincoln’s tenth birthday that day.<\/p>\n

After witnessing the controversial incident unfold, the Phillies took it upon themselves to make things right by giving the birthday boy a prize pack containing an assortment of gifts and goodies.<\/p>\n
