The life of a ball boy is a roller coaster. Sometimes they are the hero, making great catches and giving the ball to an excited fans, and sometimes they are the villain, collecting a fair ball and throwing it out of play. It's all part of the territory.

In the case of the Los Angeles Dodgers ball boy, well, we'll call him a hero based on effort alone.

No, he didn't make the grab, but you can't blame the guy for trying!
