It’s a time-honored tradition in baseball: the opposing team hits a home run and the home fans toss it back onto the field of play. You don’t often see a home player’s home run tossed back, however.
That’s just what happened on Monday night as O’s fans had invaded Nationals Park for the annual MASN Cup.
Anthony Rendon took Chris Tillman deep to tie the game at 2-2, and this hero Orioles fan let Rendon know just what he thought about that.

Can we write in that Os fan who threw the ball back for the All Star #FinalVote?
