This giant-haired costumed Padres fan really loves foul balls

By Michael Clair

Poll most fans about what their favorite baseball action is and they'll probably say home runs, diving catches or maybe even sacrifice bunts (I mean, there's gotta be at least a few). But foul balls? Turns out, there's at least one -- and he also has a giant sun-like orb of hair and a complete Padres Friar costume. 
Just watch how he reacted when A.J. Ellis blasted a foul ball out of Wrigley Field during San Diego's 10-6 win over the Cubs on Sunday. Can you imagine anything making you as happy as a foul ball made this man? 

Shine on, you crazy, foul-ball-loving diamond.
