Fan inadvertently trades wedding ring for home run ball

We've seen fans give up food, comfort and dignity in pursuit of a baseball, but this is the first time we've ever seen one give up a wedding ring.

Later, he even got to meet Soler. 

"Congratulations to him," he said, "and I guess me too for catching the ball."
