A baseball fan in Taiwan dropped his toddler daughter while trying to catch a foul ball.

Cameras at the televised game between the Taipei Brother Elephants and Taoyuan's Lamigo Monkeys, also caught the fan's wife shouting at him afterwards.

Mr Bai later said "I was going to catch the ball using one hand but ended up lifting both hands and dropped my daughter."

The girl said she slightly hurt one leg but was otherwise unhurt.

Nothing unusual here. Men have a strong instict to protect women and children - but not as strong as the instinct to protect balls
