Addison Russell is one of Major League Baseball’s brightest young shortstops, but the 23-year-old doubled as a food runner Monday night at Busch Stadium.
In the second inning of the Chicago Cubs’ matchup with the St. Louis Cardinals, Russell fell into the stands chasing down a fly ball and accidentally spilled a fan’s nachos in the process. The 2016 All-Star evidently felt bad about the mishap, as he presented the Cardinals fan with a new plate in the next inning.

The Cubs and Cardinals are heated rivals, but it looks like all it takes is a ballpark snack to bring the two sides together.
