The Atlanta Braves snapped a five-game losing streak with a 3-1 win over the Washington Nationals on Wednesday night, but it came at a cost - both on the field and in the stands.

Jason Heyward (thumb) and Andrelton Simmons (ankle) suffered injuries, but perhaps the most pain, and most embarrassing moment, came at the hands of a fan who failed miserably while attempting to use his cap to haul in a foul ball.

Surely Hall-of-Fame pitcher Tom Glavine would be ashamed this uncoordinated fan was donning his shirsey.
