Even though Mike Lowell signed a contract that will pay him more than $12 million, he's still thrifty enough to pick up valuable electronics that others leave lying around. While a fan was following the flight of a foul ball at Fenway last night, Lowell helped himself to the guy's cell phone. Here's video evidence, courtesy of The Joy of Sox.

It's a bit of a long-range camera angle but, thankfully, a hardy soul used his camcorder to capture some irrefutable video evidence. There's another, close-up view after the jump.

According to a local Boston newscast Lowell returned the phone later and said it was just a prank. That's pretty funny but the whole thing would have been better if Lowell loaned it to Manny Ramirez to call whatever planet he's from.
