Cleveland Indians fan gets drilled in the dome with foul ball, blames woman in front of him

Maybe Patrick Reed was onto something when he complained about being put in “the line drive section” at a Boston Red Sox game on Wednesday. That same night, a Cleveland Indians fan took quite the line drive to the dome. Only he blamed the woman sitting in front of him instead of the team or the PGA Tour.
We can laugh now because the guy walked away, but it appears he thought the lady in front of him would catch the blistering foul ball off the bat of the Minnesota Twins' Ehire Adrianza or at least take the brunt of it. We know this because after getting drilled, he looks at her and seems to mouth, “I thought you had it.” You know, because you should always expect the person in front of you to be able to handle a baseball traveling about 100 miles per hour.

Moments later, though, the man redeemed himself. After getting the ball tossed to him, he handed it to the woman. Then he left, presumably to get some ice before his f..

Fan catches Giancarlo Stanton’s 300th homer, trades it in for two Bud Lights (and some other great stuff)

Depending on the magnitude of a home run milestone in baseball, the fan who catches it in the stands could be in for a king's ransom, and at worst some signed gear or tickets. For a player's 300th home run, it's usually the latter, but that doesn't mean you aren't allowed to sweeten the pot a little bit.

That's what New York Yankees fan Tim Kunz did on Thursday night in the Bronx after catching Giancarlo Stanton's 300th, line-drive home run over the right field wall. In the bottom of the third, with the Yankees down 1-0, Stanton roped one to right, ending his 10-game home run drought and becoming the fifth-fastest player to reach the 300 mark in MLB history. Kunz was on the receiving end:

After Yankees security came to get Kunz, it was time to negotiate. While the 300 number is a big milestone, it's not quite..

The New York Islanders need help naming their new service puppy

Here's something cool. Partly because it involves a puppy in a tiny New York Islanders sweater—which is always worth its weight in internet gold—but also because the Islanders are training said puppy to be a service animal for visually impaired individuals. Honestly what more can you ask for?

The answer, as it turns out, is a name. As part of a collaboration with the Guide Dog Foundation, the Isles will cover the full $50,000 required to breed, raise, and train the pup, but they're asking you, the great dog-loving people of America, for help with the hardest part. Here are the options you can choose from:
MALE: Radar, Stanley, Flash, Lucky, Bauer, Easton, Checker, Biscuit
FEMALE: Meadow, Connie, Shadow, Hattie, Coli
OK, so not a great crop of options there, but something tells us “Tavares” was the off the table. Click here to cast your vote (or write in your own suggestion) and then stay tuned for the announcement in ..

Golfer has hole-in-one filmed by buddies, proceeds to completely freak out

What's the only thing better than making a hole-in-one? Having it caught on camera by your buddies. Not that I'd know about either.
RELATED: Now this is the greatest hole-in-one story of all time
But one lucky golfer named Josh Ein found this out when a recent ace he made at Red Sky Ranch and Golf Club in Edwards, Colo. was filmed by his friends. Not surprisingly, Josh was pretty excited, tossing his club in the air and running down a cart path screaming in celebration. Good stuff.

And here's a slightly longer, NSFW version in which Josh drops a couple curses. All understandable from such a rush of adrenaline. Again, not that I'd know.

Congrats, Josh. Although, to be honest, when I first saw this, I had flashbacks to Derek Jeter's fake hole-in-one a couple years back. Apparently, others had the same reaction to this video as it went viral, so Josh provided another one with a close-up that clearly shows his golf ..
