Dad drops daughter to catch foul ball, mom glares

Father of the year?

At a Taiwanese baseball game, a man was caught on camera dropping his young daughter while attempting to catch a foul ball. Not only did the child go falling onto the empty seats in front of him, but the man failed to catch the ball as well. He lifted the girl back up by her leg after the play was over as she elbowed him in the chest for good measure.

Thankfully, the daughter appeared to be fine, which is probably more than can be said for her dad, judging by the glare on the face of the mom sitting next to him. Looks like he’s going to be attending baseball games alone for quite some time.

3. He is lucky she was holding a baby or he just might have been shoved down the entire bleachers.

4. Dropped the child and didn't grab the thing?
Sounds like he's got two strikes and no balls.

9. I think they need to build a monument in your honor. :-)
From what I've seen in the past is, you throw a ball, and all the guys standing around automatically follow the thing with their eyes, or leap out to catch it!

12. Based on the look his wife gave him,
I don't think they'll be trying for child number 3 any time soon - if you know what I mean.
