During the Saturday game between the Angels and the Astros, in Houston, a fan clearly tore the ball out of Mike Trout's glove in foul territory. You can see the evidence below:
Despite that, Trout met with the fan after the game, shook his hand to let him know there are no hard feelings and he signed the ball for the guy's son. He also told them that he was upset when he initially thought they were getting kicked out of the stadium. Then he learned they just had to move seats.
What a class act, that Mike Trout!

(2,250 posts)1. It was actually their Saturday game
but everything else is wrote is spot on!
Unlike the Mookie Betts incident in last years World Series, this guy didnt try to harm the player
he just snatched the ball, then tried to give it back!

Surprised it happened on Saturday but I didn't take notice of it until this morning.

(2,250 posts)3. I knew that only because
I saw it on the MLB baseball highlights show I watched Sunday morning.
Nick Castellaneos of the Phillies is another class act. Always going out of his way to sign autographs for and talk with kids. Very cool !
