A Texas Rangers fan at Globe Life Field risked everything to catch a foul ball, which led to an incredibly viral moment.
With the defending World Series champions hosting the San Diego Padres for an interleague matchup, San Diego shortstop Jurickson Profar was up to bat with a two-run lead in the top of the eighth inning when he fouled a ball left toward the Padres dugout.
It was uncatchable to the Texas Rangers players but not to a member of their fan base.
One fan near the Padres bench wearing a blue collared shirt climbed on top of the visiting dugout, beer in hand, in an attempt to catch the ball, but he absolutely failed.
Not only did he not catch the ball, but he wasted his expensive beer.
He then followed up that failed attempt by dapping up a friend seated next to him. He then sat down as if he was going to watch the remainder of the game.

Unfortunately for him, the security team for the Texas Rangers ballpark promptly got him up and kicked him out.
As you can see above, he only escaped major injury because the safety netting separated the dugout from the fans.
San Diego broadcasters Don Orsillo and Mark Grant found themselves dumbfounded by the fan.
“What is he doing? What is that clown doing?” Grant asked before saying: “It’s time for Cha Cha to go.”
Fans at Globe Life Field could be heard booing as the fan was seemingly ejected from the game.
It was a double whammy for the man, as the Rangers lost 6-4 to the Padres.
