Usher Takes Foul Ball Away From Kid At Dodgers-Phillies Game (VIDEO)

Baseball is one of the few sports, possibly the only sport, where the bulk of fan excitement generally occurs when the ball goes out of play.

Foul balls generally make people to do interesting things, probably because they find to be amongst the rarest and most coveted souvenirs in all of sports. This summer alone, foul balls have given us miraculous catches, adorable pouting, and one pissed off Ozzie Guillen.

On Wednesday, we saw something a small bit different in answer to a dirty ball. During the Dodgers-Phillies game on Wednesday, a new boy sitting behind home plate got a guard of a coveted foul ball. While happily celebrating his new souvenir, cameras showed an usher at the stadium walk up the kid and ask the ball away.

Dodger's spokesman Josh Rawitch told the Los Angeles Times that the incident was "all in good fun," and that "within seconds of him taking it away, he walked right rear and gave it to him."

Oh, of form it was a joke. Because he's a small kid who is happily experiencing a positive life event and you're a big man in a set of assurance that can have the bit about you. Hilarious! We can't believe we didn't think of that one first!
