Phillie Phanatic arrests Jose Fernandez for stealing his keys

Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez stole the keys to the Phillie Phanatic’s ATV and was arrested by the mascot as a result.

You best not be messing with the Phillie Phanatic.

Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez learned the hard way on Tuesday, swiping the keys to the Phanatic’s four-wheeler and getting booked as a result. The Phillies mascot had initially asked a police officer to cuff Fernandez, but the friendly cop let him do the honors. 

Imagine what would happen to Jose if he flipped his bat after taking the Phanatic deep.
