Video! Rangers Fan Keeps Foul Ball -- Boy Cries

April 27, 2012 Top Stories

Sports fans were outraged Wednesday night when a pair of Texas Rangers fans grabbed a foul ball in front of a little boy's father who was trying to catch the ball for his son.

Cameras stayed on the little boy, Cameron, as he burst into tears, while the couple who caught the ball are all smiles -- seemingly oblivious to the frantic child next to them.


The couple told ABC news they had no idea someone else was going for the ball. Cameron's parents agreed, telling "Good Morning America," "It all looked worse than it was… we don’t think at all that they did it on purpose or that it was intentional or anything like that.”

This baseball meltdown has a happy ending. The Rangers organization announced that they are giving Cameron his own Texas Rangers jersey and a baseball signed by the entire team.

The couple caught the ball. You can't always get what you want. Crying doesn't make it go your way.
