Man took a fatal fall after being tossed a foul ball by Rangers' Josh Hamilton.

"A Texas baseball fan fell 20 feet to his death after reaching over a barricade for a ball tossed to the crowd by an all-star player, with former President George W. Bush in attendance.

Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton has said that he is " very distraught" after the man fell head first at the Arlingtion stadium. The married man's son was with him and witnessed the incident, according to the Associated Press.

Arlington Fire Department officials said the man, who witnesses said was conscious after the fall, "went into full arrest" while being transported by ambulance. He was pronounced dead at a Fort Worth hospital less than an hour after he fell, the AP reported."
