Fail.  The pool of candidates for "Father of the Year" has been narrowed by one.

With a foul ball heading toward him, and his daughter in his arms, a man at a Los Angeles Dodgers' game had to make a split-second choice.

He decided to drop his daughter and go for the catch. While this may have been a justifiable decision if he had been able to snag the ball, he dropped that, too.

Luckily, the daughter was uninjured, and any abandonment issues can be worked out later in therapy.

Check out the video of the double drop below. And then watch an older video of a more dexterous fan managing to both hold onto his child and catch a foul ball.
