This was hilarious! NBCSports’ cameras were on this Phillies fan giving Jose Altuve a middle finger for like five seconds:

The Phillies broadcast did absolutely nothing to get this guy off the broadcast when Altuve came up to bat.

I can only imagine the meltdown in the truck while this was going on. “Go to Chuck on Camera 6! Wait. No not Camera 6! Abort Camera 6! Jesus fucking Christ Chuck why are you zooming in! Abort Camera 6!” Wonder what the FCC fines for a middle finger that was on the broadcast so long you could measure it with an hourglass will cost ya.

Jose Altuve ended up grounding out and the Phils won on a Bryce Harper walkoff. Need Joel Embiid to post this clip immediately:

Love Bryce Harper barely wanting to celebrate. He’s still pissed he hasn’t had a home run in forever.

UPDATE: We’ve got the Embiid video:
