The New York Mets have been on a west coast road trip this past week, and it has not gone well for the team. The Mets got swept in a four-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, and will hope things go better as they head to San Francisco for the weekend series against the Giants.
Things have apparently gone equally as bad for their fans travelling west to see them play on the trip, and it’s not only because they had to see their Mets get swept.
This Mets fan was having a night out at the ballpark with his family when a foul ball came flying his way. We imagine he’s dreamed of the day he could catch a foul ball on national television since he was a little boy, and he jumped up to catch the ball without hesitation. The only problem; he may have forgotten he was holding his young child.
As you can see in the video, his assumed wife, and mother of the child, is not pleased with his behavior. She immediately grabs the child from his arms, and shows a look of extreme disappoint.
At first he looks overjoyed he hung on to the ball, but quickly realizes he will be in the doghouse for the next month or two.
