Major League Baseball fans on social media immediately compared the situation to the 2024 World Series, when New York Yankees fans caught the ball, gloved Los Angeles Dodgers Star Mookie Betts’ hands led to their shooting. These fans also banned all 30 major league stadiums indefinitely.
However, there is a key difference in this situation, as Whalen has the right to catch the ball because it is on foul territory. He never reached the border that day at Wrigley Field, making the capture situation Steve Bartman.

After the game, Whalen talked about track and field and said he was just moving towards the ball in the direction of his son.
“I just don’t know what happened,” he said. “I didn’t realize it was a scene. It was in my son’s face. I just reached out.”

The Trout looks like he is going to make a huge foul game, and when a referee simply calls it a foul ball, he feels very warm.
The safety cuts out to solve Warren’s problem, but he doesn’t pop out of the game. Instead, he and his son were transferred to different seats.
Then, after the Angels beat the Astros 4-1, the Trout met with Warren and his son in the Daykin Park Tunnel. Trout told Warren that he appreciated his reaction, and Warren said he meant he was not sick to the Angel Outfielder. He even sent the ball back to the trout.
Trout gave Warren’s son an autographed bat and signed the foul ball his father caught.
