Commenters were quick to point out that the players didn't even seem to mind. That's rare! You'd think if a random person slapped your butt you'd probably freak out! If it happened in any other sport it probably would have gone a different way, but it's just a part of baseball, I guess. Just another one of the many traditions.
The viral moment happened during a game between the Cincinnati Reds and New York Yankees. It happened in the 4th inning of the game. The Reds would go on to win 6-1 so maybe the butt slap was good luck. The fan might be invited back! Baseball is crazy for its superstitions.
