The father who chased down a home run ball for his son at a Phillies game, only to have another fan demand it from him, is speaking out.

Drew Feltwell was at a Phillies-Marlins game in Miami with his children on Friday when Phillies center fielder Harrison Bader hit a home run. The ball went flying into the crowd in left field, landing in the bleachers where Feltwell was sitting.

Video circulating online appears to show the ball landing in front of a woman in a Phillies jersey and a man in a black shirt seated to Feltwell’s right. As they search for it on the ground, Feltwell walks over, picks up the ball and hands it to his son, Lincoln, placing it in his mitt.

“I was already ecstatic, like got Bader’s home run ball, and I get to put it in my son’s glove and that was, it was already enough,” Feltwell told NBC News in an interview Saturday, flanked by his children. “You know, and then, then here she comes.”

Video shows the woman in the Phillies jersey walk over to Feltwell, who is embracing his son, and demand the ball.

“Something touched my arm, and then she just screamed in my ear, ‘That’s my ball,’ like, so loud,” Feltwell said.

Feltwell appeared shaken by the confrontation, the video shows. After a brief interaction, he plucks the ball out of his son’s mitt and hands it to the woman in the Phillies jersey.

He said he made the decision because he did not want to do something he’d regret in front of his kids.

“There was kind of a fork in the road, like, I’m gonna go one direction and then probably regret,” Feltwell said. “Or go this direction and do something in front of my kids that, you know, like a teaching moment.”

Videos of the incident quickly went viral online this weekend, with some dubbing the woman in the Phillies jersey “Phillies Karen.”

“Who takes a baseball from a kid? An entitled Karen,” one commenter wrote on a YouTube video of the incident.

Another commenter said, “Bleacher Rule #1 If you catch it in mid-air, it’s your souvenir. If it is not caught, it is a live ball.”

The Phillies went on to win the game 9-3, and Lincoln was invited to meet Bader, with the MLB team sharing photos of that meeting on its official X account.

The team’s post on X was captioned, “Going home with a signed bat from Bader,” and included a photo showing Feltwell and his children.

Feltwell does not expect a genuine apology from the woman in the Phillies jersey, saying that even if she returned the ball, he imagines it would be a hasty handoff with her walking away.

“And that would still be hard for her to do,” Feltwell said.

NBC News has not been able to identify the woman in the Phillies jersey.
