One young Chicago Cubs fan felt the pain during this historic day.
On the Fourth of July, many Major League Baseball teams were in action, trying to deliver a win to their home fans before they set out to barbeque.
The Chicago Cubs were one of them who welcomed the Philadelphia Phillies to Wrigley Park.
During the seventh-inning stretch, the Cubs were having a great day, as they were up 8-2.
Once “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” started to play, one Chicago Cubs fan was not having a good time. Cameramen started scanning Wrigley Field for shots of the crowd when they inadvertently caught a young lady in the crowd taking her hand and slapping the midsection of what we presume is her little brother.
She may have been aiming for his stomach, but she appeared to hit him in a more sensitive area.

Fortunately for that fan, he would leave the ballpark happy.
Ian Happ had a great day at the plate as he hit three-run homers from both sides of the plate for a career-high six RBIs.
The struggling Cubs pounded the major league-leading Philadelphia Phillies 10-2 to avoid a three-game sweep.
Chicago Cubs Having Tough 2024 Season Amid High Expectations
The Cubs came into the season expecting to contend for the NL Central championship, but things have not gone their way, as they are dead last in the division with a 40-48 record, per Google.
As of Thursday, they are 12.5 games out of first place. There are only two other teams in the National League who have a worse record than them.
The Cubs haven’t been in last place this deep into a season in over a decade. This is a hard pill to swallow for a team that had high expectations.
