Generally, when a spectator at a baseball game catches a foul ball he’s next seen fielding a call from a friend or a relative who saw him make the snag on TV.

This Texas Ranger ran took that congratulations right away because he was already deep into a cell phone conversation when he casually grabbed a screaming line drive of a foul ball off the bat of Rangers’ second baseman Ian Kinsler.

While foul balls hit into the stands provide fans with the chance to make some pretty epic catches, those suckers are traveling at high enough speeds to cause an injury.

During last night’s game against the Orioles, Yankees third baseman Eric Chavez almost catches a foul ball that was headed for the crowd. When he can’t make the grab, the ball ends up hitting a woman in the front row smack in the unprotected face.

I love everything about going to a baseball game, from the stadium dogs to the cold beer...all the way down to the foul balls. Well, over the weekend a father took his daughter to see the Marlins and Dodgers go at it when all of the sudden a foul ball was hit in his direction. If a ball is hit in your direction, what's your natural instinct? Catch it, right? That's exactly what this dad was trying to do, the only problem was that he wasn't wearing his glove, he was holding his daughter. What happens next is hilarious, primarily because it appeared the little girl wasn't injured.
