During Pollard’s enormous hitting two of his shots went flying out of the stadium and landed on the nearby road. It is a busy road where Pollards six landed twice. After the first hit the ball landed on the road, one guy came and picked up the ball then refused to return it and went running away.

Then after the second hit the ball again landed on the road but this time there was a different guy who picked up the ball. The second posed with the ball for a selfie and then decides to return the ball back inside the stadium.
