Two Dodgers fans sitting next to one another at a game against the New York Mets in Los Angeles said they caught two consecutive foul balls.

Glen Walker, who was sitting in Seat 1 of Dodger Stadium's Section 11, Row N, caught a foul ball hit by Dodger first baseman James Loney in the bottom of the fifth inning Wednesday -- and Joe Castro, who was sitting in Seat 2, caught a ball Loney hit on the very next pitch, the Los Angeles Times reported Thursday.

Castro said he was giving Walker a congratulatory high five for catching the first foul ball when he heard Loney's bat connect with the next pitch and saw another foul coming their way.

It was crazy, Castro said. Everybody was in disbelief. People around us were yelling, 'Did we just see that?' They were blown away. A guy across the aisle came back from the snack bar and asked if he'd missed anything and we held up our foul balls. He couldn't believe it.

University of Southern California mathematics professor Kenneth Alexander told the Times the probability of the two foul balls going to two adjacent seats was one in 10,000. (c) UPI
