Carey Rottman, a survivor of the Aurora movie theater shooting, threw out the first pitch before the Rockies faced on the Brewers on Monday at Coors Field.

Padres fan pounds beer after foul ball lands in his cup

Check out the video above, as a Padres fan in a Tony Gwynn throwback pounds his beer after a foul ball lands in it on Tuesday night at Petco Park. With the Padres leading 2-1 in the bottom of the 7th, Will Venuable swung at Colorado reliever Matt Reynolds' 1-1 offering and hit a popup down the third-base line near the stands. Third baseman Jordan Pacheco gave chase, but the ball goes into foul territory. The dude sitting in the second row rocking the old-school yellow jersey tries to catch it but fails. However, the ball bounces in the first row before landing in his cup. He proceeds to pound his beer with the ball still in his cup while the people sitting near his snap pics on their cell phones.
