Dad's pursuit of foul ball while holding child ends badly during college baseball game

No matter the level of baseball, foul balls will always be chased after by spectators, but sometimes fans can get a bit carried away with their pursuit of the ball.

That happened to one particular dad during a college baseball regional elimination game between the Campbell Fighting Camels and the N.C. State Wolfpack Sunday afternoon in Columbia, South Carolina.

In the bottom of the seventh inning, the man decided to sprint after a foul ball that was hit by a Wolfpack player down the right field line, past the stands and into the pavilion area.

Not only did he take off immediately after seeing where the ball landed, but now-viral video footage shows he was carrying a small child with him.

While running toward the coveted ball, the dad began to lose his footing – and it all went downhill from there.

Missing his initial attempt at grabbing the ball, he bent down to try to snag it again and fell down, hitting the ground hard. It appeared that the child hit his head pretty hard as well.

The ESPN announcer’s reaction was likely similar to that of all spectators: If you’re going to go after a ball, make sure your child isn’t in your care if you fall – or be very sure you can make the play.

The Camels went on to slaughter N.C. State, avoiding elimination in the regional with an 11-1 win on Sunday afternoon. 

Jarrod Belbin got Campbell on the board quick in the top of the first inning with a solo homer to right field. Drew Winters would add two more runs when he lifted one for the fence in the same frame to take a commanding lead right off the bat.

Two more runs would be added in the second inning followed by Grant Knipp’s two-run homer that blew the doors open in the third inning. 

The Wolfpack managed to record 11 hits, but they couldn’t bring runners home like the Camels, who tallied 16 hits on the day.

However, the Camels couldn’t get past the South Carolina Gamecocks in the regional championship game later that day, falling 16-7. 

The Gamecocks moved on to the super regional for the first time since 2018 with the victory.

SEAN HANNITY: We're seeing a brazen level of political bias and corruption at the FBI and DOJ

Fox News host Sean Hannity has the latest on the classified documents investigation into former President Donald Trump on "Hannity."

SEAN HANNITY: Now, despite a mountain of evidence of public corruption, the FBI, the DOJ, they have been protecting and continue to protect the Biden family, just like Hillary Clinton was protected in 2016 and before that, the Clinton Foundation was protected. At the very same time, after an unprecedented SWAT-style raid at the home of former President Trump, the DOJ is apparently moving at lightning speed to prosecute Donald Trump. Why? Over some documents stored in a secure room that the FBI had had access to months earlier at Mar-a-Lago from Trump's time in the White House? 

TRUMP LAWYERS MEET OFFICIALS AT DOJ AS SPECIAL COUNSEL PROBE ON CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS NEAR END

Now, today, former President Trump's attorney met with the special counsel, Jack Smith and other DOJ officials. And what many now believe is a precursor to an indictment, maybe as early as this week. According to reports, a federal grand jury has been hearing evidence in this case. They are expected to meet again this week. And breaking tonight, sources close to this program, we're also learning that there is consideration of a possible Hunter Biden indictment this week if not the same day as a possible Trump indictment. 

My sources say obviously the Justice Department is extremely nervous. This will be viewed, properly, as political retribution. So now the question is, how much is politics really a factor in the Biden Justice Department? Now, of course, if Trump's last name were Clinton or Biden, he'd never be charged in any document probe. His place wouldn't have gotten raided. It would have never gotten this far. 

THE TRUMP MAR-A-LAGO SEARCH WAS JUSTIFIED

Hillary, we all know she mishandled top secret classified material on private servers likely hacked by foreign countries. She then deleted 33,000 subpoenaed emails. Wiped those devices clean with something we had never heard of called bleach bit. She removed SIM cards from the phones and Blackberries and had them destroyed with hammers. But according to James Comey, "no reasonable prosecutor" would bring charges against Hillary Clinton. 

Now, keep in mind, another special counsel is investigating Joe Biden over the exact same issue, except Biden allegedly mishandled classified material in multiple unsecured locations, including secret documents from Biden's time, even going back as far as him being a senator. But surprise, surprise, that case appears to be going nowhere. There are no impending charges, no grand jury that we know of. And by the way, there's been no leaks at all whatsoever. In contrast, the document investigation into Donald Trump has been riddled with never-ending leaks, disclosures, including FBI photographs from inside Mar-a-Lago, all designed to embarrass and impugn the former president. 

This is a brazen level of political bias and corruption at the FBI and the DOJ. Now, think about it. The Biden DOJ is now preparing to charge Joe Biden's chief political opponent heading into an election year, Donald Trump, with the very same crime that he himself is under investigation for? All while Biden, you know, walks away scot-free? Now, that is what you would expect from a banana republic, not from the United States.
