Ryon Healy's upper-deck homer smashed a fan's phone, and the A's offered to replace it

You may think that by sitting high up in the rafters at a ballpark, you wouldn't need to be on high alert for home runs. After all, the upper deck is called just that -- "upper," as in "higher and farther than the rest of the seats." But sometimes, action finds you anyway.
In the second inning of the A's 9-6 win over the Mariners on Tuesday night at Safeco Field, Ryon Healy connected on a 3-1 pitch from Chase De Jong and sent the ball high, deep and far into the Seattle evening for a two-run homer. The ball sailed into the upper deck, where it settled into the stands ... somewhere around here:

Peter Johnson presented the evidence in a tweet to the A's:

And Johnson added that no, prior to this moment he had never caught a foul ball or home run before.
Phones may have a concrete financial value, but this experience is just priceless.
Before Wednesday's A's-Mariners game at Safeco, Healy sent a special message to Johnson in response to the phone-smashing:
