Royals fan tumbles backwards to make tremendous catch at Twins game (Video)

A Kansas City Royals fan who attended Sunday's road game against the Minnesota Twins made a tremendous catch of a foul ball as he leaned back and caught it while tumbling backwards over his seat.

It happened in the fourth inning on a foul popup hit by Royals batter Billy Butler. Not only did the fan manage to hold onto the ball while falling onto the floor of the row behind him, but he was able to hold the ball up for everyone to see to prove that he caught it.

Talk about a fan who deserves a contract. That Royals fan earned that baseball.
