Phillies Karen’s war against a young boy celebrating his birthday at a Phillies-Marlins baseball game on Friday night immediately hit SportsCenter that same night, with hosts Nicole Briscoe and Michael Eaves shaming the woman.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, a woman at the Phillies game lost her mind after a father in left field grabbed a home run ball and gave the souvenir to his young son. She then approached the family and forced the birthday boy to hand his ball over.
The viral incident set the internet ablaze and crowned the woman “Phillies Karen.”

Not only did the woman face shame from millions who saw the clip, but the boy also got a happy ending when both teams honored him with gifts. The Phillies even got him a meeting with Gold Glove-winning outfielder Harrison Bader, who hit the homer in question, and a signed bat.
During a segment of SportsCenter’s “So This Happened,” Briscoe and Eaves broke down the incident.
“Oh, she went after him!” Briscoe said. “She is big mad… Watch the reaction of everyone around her. I hate to call her a Karen, but…”
Eaves was incredulous, saying, “That’s not how that works, though… Really, lady?” When hearing that a Marlins representative apologized to the kid and gave him a swag bag, Eaves added, “Awesome. Make her feel terrible.”
In summation, Briscoe commented, “That is how you treat kids. I don’t care lady who you are. You didn’t have a kid with you; he did, and it’s about them. What the hell?” She added, “What is wrong with people?”
“She earned that,” said Eaves.
