Dodgers Fan Dad Catches Ball While Holding Baby in the Other Hand

Happy Mother's Day! I Caught You A Baseball, But I Dropped the Baby
by CriticalFanatic
5/8/08



OK, don't worry, this guy actually did successfully hold onto the baby with one hand while catching the home run in his glove with the other.

Now that's a dedicated fan ... and an idiot. Simply taking a baby to Dodgers Stadium would classify as child abuse, so I'm not sure what you'd call this.

Hysterically, and I'm not sure if Vin Scully is that prescient, but during his home run call he noted "that baby is going up into the seats."

Just about, Vin, just about.

God bless Dodgers fans.

Oh that's a baby, I thought it was a Jonathan Broxton bobble head.

Baby or no baby I have a huge issue with this. Is that baby permanently attached to you sir? If not then you can drop the kid and get that second hand up there. Parenting no matter good or bad is an excuse to break from fundamentals. Now go take a lap.

At least he didn't rob a store with his kid in hand - like this Tennessee dad did. Go Vols!

Why in the name of all that is holy would you take a baby to Dodger Stadium?

I wonder if he could do that two more times, and if he were given the opportunity to try at what point would the mother freak and take the baby away?

Um, pretty sure she did the 1st time.

If that is his wife sitting on the bleachers next to him, she didn't seem overly concerned.  Either she is really brave, or they have now found a way to make Brittney Spears look like a responsible parent.  I am thinking the latter.

Or they're just Dodgers fans. Which is the best explanation.
