VIDEO: Hooters girl mistakenly throws live baseball into crowd. A Hooters ballgirl is all smiles despite making an embarrassing mistake in a baseball training game. AS far as baseball ballgirls go, this one makes a pretty good waitress. A Hooters girl working the sidelines at a Philadelphia Phillies training game against the Tampa Bay Rays made headlines for the wrong reasons when she picked up a live ball and threw it to a fan. When the ball was hit inside the field of play but flew in her direction, she was quick to scoop it up and lob it into the crowd, not realising the ball was still live. The girl, unaware of her mistake until she sat back down, quickly covered her face with her glove once she realised her embarrassing gaffe. The error was reportedly the second time in weeks that a ballgirl had made the same error.
