Something a little like that happened to me at Fenway long ago.A foul came up my way during batting practice and I went to get it for my nephew.A young kid and I arrived at the ball at the exact same time and I used a bit of strength to get it from him.In reality*he* should have gotten the ball.My conscience bothered me afterward and I finally tossed the ball to him.Although I wasn't aware of having attracted any attention a number of people in that section cheered when I did so.
I'm not always a *complete* SOB.
