Little Girl Fires Daddy's Foul Ball Back!!!

He made the catch of the game -- pulling in a foul ball at yesterday's Philadelphia Phillies game from his seat in the stands -- but when Steve Monforto handed the precious ball to his little daughter Emily ... she threw the ball back onto the field!



Monforto was all class after the blunder -- immediately turning to comfort his daughter ... because he "wanted to let her know that ... she didn't do anything wrong." Dude also told MyFoxPhilly.com that a Phillies rep brought him a replacement ball as a souvenier later in the game.

As for Emily -- girl's got one hell of an arm!

11. What a great baseball moment: 1)Daddy's little girl gets the ball after he makes a great catch. 2)She throws the ball back, he laughs and hugs her with love. 3)Then the Phillies made sure she got a ball to still charish the moment. 4)Made ESPN top plays list and TMZ posting as well.

12. Oh he's such a sweet dad I would have been mad lol. But someone said that he got a sign autograph ball at the end of the game so it worked out in the end.
