A Cubs fan at Wrigley Field caught a foul ball with one hand while holding his baby. The father was leaning over the railing on the first baseline, and he stole the catch away from Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzalez.

After looking at the play from multiple angles, the Cubs fan did reach over into the field of play and interfered with Gonzalez.

The fan should’ve been ejected from Wrigley Field for fan interference but nothing happened to him.
Cubs security explained to the guy who made the catch that was called fan interference he was wrong. Normally you are ejected for that .

This play reminded some Cubs fans on Twitter of the Steve Bartman incident.
