Phillies fan Steve Monforto caught his first-ever foul ball Tuesday night, but when the beaming dad presented the souvenir to his daughter, the 3-year-old promptly tossed it back onto the field in a priceless moment caught on video.
"As the ball was coming up I was just thinking, 'Don’t drop it Steve -- or I'll have all of Citizens Bank Park booing me,'" said Monforto.
Monforto coolly made the catch and proudly handed the trophy to his daughter Emily while fans watched and television cameras rolled. When the oblivious little girl threw the ball back onto the field, his initial shock soon gave way to a heartwarming paternal gesture that has gone viral.
