A handsy baseball fan shocked two MLB commentators into silence during a live broadcast on Saturday night.
During the top of the fifth inning of the game between the Athletics and Texas Rangers, the camera cut to a male and female having a great time in the stands.
The couple were eating snacks and talking to each other and then the man, clearly aware the camera was focused on them, decided to grab the woman’s breast.
‘For the folks at home, I will apologize,’ the lead commentator said before then telling his colleague ‘Chris’ that he’s ‘a handful my friend’.
There was then barely anything said between them for the next 30 seconds and, when one of them eventually broke the silence to comment on a hit, it was clear they had been laughing hysterically.
The lead commentator then delivered another perfect line as the broadcast cut to a commercial break, saying: ‘A’s down by a few. Trying to grab a couple back…’

Fans were also left in hysterics by the episode and took to social media to comment.
One posted: ‘This is the best I love it! Now that’s what I call a date night!’
A second posted: ‘The “handful” line was great… but the subtle double down of ‘grab a couple back’ on the outro was absolutely legendary!’
A third commented: ‘Never a dull moment during an As broadcast’.
It was not a good night for the A’s fans on the field, either. The surging Rangers won 9-3 on Saturday night for their fourth consecutive victory.
