Carlos Gomez borrowed a Rays fan's phone to fake a quick call after pursuing a foul ball

While in the ballpark taking in a game, you must be aware of your surroundings -- for foul balls, sure, but also for Carlos Gómez.
You never know when the Rays outfielder might do something fun on the field. And, if you're sitting down the right-field line, this is especially important to remember. He might borrow your sunglasses for an inning, or, as a fan seated close to the field in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Marlins at Tropicana Field witnessed, fake a phone call simply because he could: 

He didn't take a selfie with the fan, though. Maybe that's in store for his next act ...
