On Tuesday night, the team hosted $1 hot dog night, which resulted in a giant food fight across the stadium.Now, a video has emerged of a young fan stealing a home run ball from another fan and throwing it on the field. The fan who originally had possession of the ball was an adult and looked awkward as fans around him cheered on the little girl.Jomboy Media@JomboyMediaWhen the opponent hits a homer in Philly you don’t get to enjoy the souvenir(via u/Whodatsaint)169090When the opponent hits a homer in Philly you don’t get to enjoy the souvenir(via u/Whodatsaint) https://t.co/ZkAFmkvTChThe adult clearly didn't want to give up the ball, but the young fan didn't care, and neither did the young fan's parents. The fan was lucky the adult had some self control. Do this to the wrong person, and it could have turned into a bad situation.Baseball fans were taken aback after watching the video. &quot;That is so bad on so many levels.

They're not the only ones as the Houston Astros haven't started off too hot either.The Phillies find themselves with a 4-8 record heading into Thursday. They have struggled to get consistent hitting and quality starts from their pitchers. They have only had two starts where their pitchers have pitched into the sixth inning, taxing their bullpen.Luckily, the season is still young and they're getting ready to see one of their superstars return to the field. Bryce Harper has been taking swings during batting practice and has looked phenomenal. Don't be surprised if Harper is able to return before the All-Star break timetable.
