Phillies Get A New Closer

Picture it...you're at the ballgame. Not only that, it's a gorgeous night, and you have your little girl along to start her along a path of loving baseball and giving you an excuse to watch every game on television ("No really honey, I'm watching it for HER!"). The game is going well, and then in the fifth inning to your shock and awe, a fly ball finds its way up towards you. You reach out over the railing, and make a stunning bare handed grab! You throw your hands up, elated, give a few strangers the 'ol knuckle-punch. Daddy instincts kick in, and you realize that giving this ball to your 2 year old daughter will make her life complete.

And then she throws it over the railing.

Too. Damn. Funny. On the plus side, a Phillies usher came up the following inning with a replacement, which the dad promptly hid under his seat.
