Man Pushes Kid Down To Catch Baseball [VIDEO]

How rude is this guy.  He plows down this little kid to get a souvenir baseball.

It happened Wednesday in the 14th inning of a game between the Chicago White Sox and the Seattle Mariners at Safeco Field.

Down 5-1, with the bases loaded, Mariners Kyle Seager hit a grand slam to tie the game.  So what does this guy do?  He knocks this kid to the ground to get a baseball, that judging by the size of the attending crowd, means very little to anybody.

Is this guy justified for his behavior?  Is it the kids fault for getting in the way?  Or is this guy being a jerk?
