Getting your player ready...
Steve Monforto made a great grab, catching his first foul ball after years of going to Phillies games. He fist-bumped his buddies, high-fived his 3-year-old daughter and then handed her the prize. Big mistake. Little Emily threw the ball over the railing. Stunned by his toddler’s toss Tuesday night, all Pop could do was hug her. “I didn’t want her to think she did anything wrong,” he said on WIP-AM radio. The Monfortos are scheduled to appear on the “Today” show today, and the family went home with a baseball. A few of them, actually. General manager Ruben Amaro Jr. and three team employees saw what happened and each gave them a ball.
