A shocking incident took place on September 5, 2025, when Phillies center fielder Harrison Bader hit a solo home run against the Miami Marlins. As the ball landed in the stands near Drew Feltwell and his young son, Lincoln, Drew immediately picked it up and handed the prized baseball to Lincoln who had come to celebrate his birthday which was last Friday. However, just moments later, the “Phillies Karen” approached them and aggressively demanded the ball back. She claimed that the ball had been closer to her seat, and Drew reluctantly handed over the ball, unwilling to escalate the confrontation, and prioritized his son’s safety over the dispute.
