Any baseball fan will tell you that catching a foul ball at a game is pretty much the holy grail of souvenirs -- next to catching a home run ball, of course.

But there's a lot of luck involved, as the odds of snagging one of these coveted keepsakes are somewhere around one in 600, depending on the ballpark (according to Fangraphs).

So imagine how lucky one must be to catch two foul balls -- in one game.

Well this Tigers fan might want to buy himself a lottery ticket, because that's exactly what he did during Tuesday's game against the White Sox at Comerica Park.

Watch as he makes a great grab on a foul ball off the bat of Victor Martinez.

And again in the ninth inning, this time off the bat off Adam Eaton.

MLB.com says the odds of accomplishing this amazing feat are about one in 324,900.
