US EditionSports Card Company Offers 'Phillies Karen' $5,000 for Home Run Ball, but There's a Catch
Blowout Cards offers $5,000 to the woman for the home run ball if she includes her autograph and an apology, aiming to return it to the 10-year-old boy, officials said.
- On September 5, 2025, during a baseball game between the Phillies and Marlins held in Miami, a woman angrily demanded a home run ball from a father who had planned to give it to his son.
- The woman, dubbed the 'Phillies Karen,' harassed the father until he took the ball back from his son and handed it to her to de-escalate the situation.
- A well-known trading card retailer pledged $5,000 to the woman in possession of the baseball, provided she signs it and includes the message "I'm sorry," so the ball can be returned to the young boy.
- Drew Feltwell, the father, said he does not regret giving the ball away, expressed concern for the woman’s well-being, and wished he still had the ball to keep for his son.
- The incident went viral, the Phillies gifted the boy a signed bat, and Blowout Cards continues to seek the ball to reunite it with the young fan, reflecting ongoing public and corporate interest.
