Giants TV affiliate trolls Phillies’ controversial Karen with heartfelt video
San Francisco is calling out the City of Brotherly Love.
During the Giants’ 11-6 win over the Diamondbacks Tuesday, one male fan wearing a white hat won a scramble for a foul ball and had no hesitation, giving it to a young girl.
“No Karens at our ballpark,” the Giants TV affiliate X account, @NBCSGiants, said in a social media post.
The “Karen” in question is the Phillies fan who went viral following who a similar incident that ended in disaster when a female fan screamed at a father who snagged a ball for his child.
In the heated confrontation that occurred Friday in Miami, a middle-aged woman screamed at a fan who won a mad dash for a ball in the stands between six fans.
The man eventually gave her the ball to make her go away.
The reaction of social media was so dramatic that fans began attempting to dox the gray-haired female fan, although she was misidentified on multiple occasions.

One sports collectible company is even offering $5,000 for the ball that the woman, nicknamed on social media as “Phillies Karen,” snagged, though the catch is they want her to write “I’m sorry” on it so they can give it to the boy, Lincoln Feltwell.
Lincoln got to meet Harrison Bader, who hit the home run on the ball in question, and received a signed bat from the Phillies outfielder.
The boy’s father, Drew Feltwell, asked folks not to cancel the unidentified woman.
“Please don’t do anything to that lady,’’ Feltwell told USA Today. “Leave it alone. You know, somebody knows her and can talk to her, that’s different. But God, I don’t want people breaking in their house and stuff like that. The internet already messed her up pretty good.”
Things are going pretty well for the Giants overall, as they are now just two games out of the final wild-card spot in the National League as the Mets continue to falter.
The Mets, though, own the tiebreaker.
