Overview

• The Sept. 5 incident followed a Harrison Bader homer at loanDepot Park, where Drew Feltwell grabbed the ball and handed it to his son, Lincoln, before a woman confronted him and he surrendered it.
• Feltwell told NBC10 he gave up the ball to de‑escalate in front of his children, calling it a difficult choice that he felt set a calm example.
• The Marlins apologized to Lincoln during the game with a goodie bag, and the Phillies later shared that Bader met him and provided a signed bat.
• Additional clips circulating online present conflicting interpretations, including the woman’s claim the ball was in her hands, while separate video shows her flipping off booing fans.
• Online efforts to identify the woman produced false claims, with the Hammonton Public School District publicly denying that a named administrator worked for the district or was involved; no confirmed identification has been made.
