In the bottom of the fourth, Phillies leadoff batter Marlon Byrd hit a grounder into foul territory on the third base side. The Phillies fan in the front row reached over the tarp for the ball while trying to keep his foot on the railing to stay off the field. He was able to get the ball, but mainly because he fell onto the field in front of it.
Our money says this fan was kicked out of the park for this one. If he's lucky, maybe the Citizens Bank Park security let him keep the ball.
DISCLAIMER: Holdout Sports does not condone fans running onto the field.
