Someone in Chicago is about to be famous…
Keep your eye on the bald guy behind the little kid on the woman’s lap when the Cubs player throws him the ball:
Way to act like a total douche instead of giving the ball back to the little kid in front of you buddy. #Cubs fans suck pic.twitter.com/AoZAf2vZ1j

Not cool, dude.

But the story does have a happy ending as the Cubs saw the buzz on Twitter and gave the kid a ball autographed by Javier Báez:
A @javy23baez signed ball should take care of it. #EverybodyIn pic.twitter.com/4YzUlG8qfN

Update:
I spoke with people from the Cubs. The man who grabbed the ball on the widely seen video had actually already helped the little boy get a ball earlier. The young man has a game used ball and a Javy Baez ball. All is well. Guy is A-OK so let it go people.
