Wiley Ballard managed to go viral on the sidelines of the race baseball of Atlanta Braves with Blue Jays in USAas she did … a harvest to two female fans and eventually got the phone number of one of them.
In a report that came out live during the baseball match in the US, Wiley Ballard talked to the two women about their match and their presence on the Atlanta Braves stadium, then challenge the studio to ask for their phone number.
“You have four attempts to get their phone,” he was told from the studio, with him revealing the fact to the two women and then saying: “I am serious. They tell me in my ear. They don’t believe me why they think you are making fun.” Eventually, she managed to get a woman’s phone number and made fun, saying: “I should have thought about it for years. I got her number, we’re ok.”
Shoutout to my guy @wileyballard_ setting the standard for sports reporters getting a phone number out in the wild.
10/10 work

It is worth noting, however, that the incident has also brought many reactions to social media, with many users talking about misogyny, arguing that if she were a female journalist in her place, they would “crucify” her.
