Merrill hit a ball foul down the first-base side. The ball caromed off the siding of the second deck and bounced back toward the lower bowl. A baseball fan watched the ball come him and decided to make a death-defying decision to leap backward and catch it.
The man went head over heels to make the fantastic grab, falling a few rows. He was helped up and appeared to be OK, making the decision to put his life at risk for a baseball all worth it.

The Padres were leading 1-0 at the time and won by the same score.
Padres third baseman Manny Machado drove in the only run in the game with a bases-loaded walk that drove in Jake Cronenworth. It’s the first time Colorado has been shut out. But they’ve only managed to score four runs over their last 18 innings despite putting 13 on the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 18 innings prior to their opening game in this home series against the Padres.
San Diego starter Randy Vasquez struck out five and only allowed three hits. Jason Adam and Adrian Morejon closed the game out for the Padres.
