Eighth inning, Rangers and Yankees in Arlington, and Mitch Moreland tosses a foul ball into the stands. It's caught! But the recipients appear to be the most obnoxious couple ever. Not only did they miss a great opportunity to do something nice for a nearby toddler, she taunted the boy as he cried.

They definitely get the d-bag of the year award. Think that's offensive? Wait until you see the video.

Now Ian, a young Arizona Diamondbacks fan, did the right thing and handed off a ball to Nicholas. But Nicholas is a Brewers fan! If you don't think this is sweet, there just may be something wrong with you.

And did anyone notice the hat young Ian is wearing?

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.
