Hooters Ball Girl Mistakenly Fields Fair Ball During Phillies Spring Training
NBC Washington ^ | Mar 12, 2013 | An Phung

Posted on 03/12/2013 8:38:51 AM PDT by oxcart

Spring training is a time during pre-season where players get to practice, play and make mistakes. This year, even the ball girls are getting in on the blunders.

The Philadelphia Phillies and Tampa Bay Rays were in the top of the sixth inning this weekend when Rays' hitter Shelly Duncan hit a ground ball that bounced into left field foul territory.

The ball was ruled fair, but a Hooters ball girl picked it up with her glove and handed it to a fan in the stands.

The embarassing move wasn't a total loss.

"She has no idea that she has interfered with the play," the announcer said. "But she's making a young fan very happy with that ball."

I’m guessing she’s innocent of all charges.

Boston Red Sox Right Fielder Trot Nixon threw a ball into the Right Field Grand Stands after making a catch for the 2nd out.

Her name ain't Bartman and this ain't the playoffs. It's spring training. Sometimes the manager's get together and quit a game that's tied. The other day a pitcher got fired during the game. And no one is going to yell at a Hooter's girl jogging around in hot pants, especially not pro baseball players.

That’s allowed. It’s a legit play.

Wonder if it was ruled a ground rule double since the fair ball went into the stands?
