Cubs fan ball

We have another example of a gem of a fan to highlight.

A Chicago Cubs fan took a ball that was intended for a child during Sunday’s Cubs-Cardinals game at Wrigley Field.

Unfortunately this sort of thing is more common than you think.

Let’s hope the fan did the right thing and gave the ball to the kid. At least the Cubs tried to make it right.

Should be noted that the Cubs made this right and Javy Baez gave the poor kid a signed baseball. Well done, @Cubs.
