Little girl gets foul ball, proceeds to lick it (VIDEO)

This little fan at Friday's Diamondbacks-Padres game was lucky enough to get a foul ball, and  immediately proceeded to see what it tastes like.

My guess is plain beef jerky.

Whatever its flavor, there must be something in the hide this season because this Astros fan did his own taste test the other night — and got slapped for it.

Young Astros fan licks foul ball and gets slapped (VIDEO)

This young Astros fan probably knew what would happen if he let his big sister "just hold" his newly caught foul ball — so he made sure to mark it as his own.

To turn that prized souvenir into a gross thing that she would never be able to confiscate, the little imp gave it a quick lick. Which, in that unwritten sibling court of law ruling, legally makes it his property.

Even the playful slap made it worthwhile.

Bonus. Since it fell on the ground, it probably still had that hot dog, peanut and Cracker Jack flavor too.
