Watch: Mariners Fan Catches Back-To-Back Foul Balls In Wild Moment

Published|Updated

You can't make it up!

A Seattle Mariners fan lived out every baseball kid's dream after catching not just one, but two foul balls during last night's Mariners- Royals game. 

The unbelievable feat came in the bottom of the first inning as the Mariners' Josh Rojas was up at the plate. After first fouling off a high pop up to left field just in front of the foul pole, Rojas did the same thing again on the very next pitch!

"He got both! He got em both!," Seattle's TV play-by-play announcer Aaron Goldsmith screamed as nearby fans stood in disbelief.

FAN CAUGHT BACK-TO-BACK FOUL BALLS

The fact that this happened to the same fan on consecutive pitchers truly is unreal. 

But get this - it's shockingly happened in the past. Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton hit two fouls to a similar lucky fan during a game back in 2009. 

Being that I'm an esteemed journalist and content creator, I am proud to admit that I am not a mathematician, so I have no idea what the odds are of getting not one, but two foul balls during a baseball game.

I do know, however, that the Mariners fan from last night better have bought a lotto ticket this morning!
