they laugh and joke at first until they see the footage and it slowly sinks in that he might just be hurt

Poor Kid, what a sad way to lose a Father and a Local Hero (Firefighter)....

His son watched him die. Or the event that caused his death, at least. That's completely awful. That's supposed to be a good time and nice memory for them. I don't often feel bad about death and people dying, but feel some emotion with this.

I'd feel like **** if I was Hamilton even though it was the fan's mistake.

Wow, one of the saddest things ive seen. Just for the simple fact that Hamliton was just tossing the ball up there trying to be nice with fans and the guy falls off the railling right beside his son. Now the kid will be scarred for life! !

Right after the father fell on his head. His first and only worry was his son yet he dies soon after

. Its a shame we dont value a human life enough to stop a freakin baseball game. Hamilton must be feeling really guilty now even though he shouldnt be. It was a freak accident.

Sucks to be Josh Hamilton right now.

That kid is going to hate baseball for the rest of his life.
