Yankee Game Proposal Goes Awry When Man Drops Engagement Ring

This might be the worst Yankees loss this season.

At the end of the fourth inning in the left field stands, a man in a Mariano Rivera jersey proposed to his girlfriend, proudly wearing Derek Jeter’s No. 2. But this baseball proposal took a sharp turn when he dropped the ring as he popped the question. The entire drama was captured on the stadium’s outfield scoreboard.

“I literally started crying because I thought it was lost,” 29-year-old Andrew Fox told ESPN. “It happened so fast.”

Fox’s girlfriend Heather Terwilliger was apparently shell-shocked ― first by the proposal and then by the empty box.

“I didn’t know how to react,” Terwilliger said.

Fans in the couple’s section immediately formed a search party. The video of couple’s crestfallen faces is heart-wrenching.

Luckily, the ring was found in the cuff of Terwilliger’s jeans and Fox was able to redo the proposal, ring in hand.

Talk about a home-run. Watch the whole heart-pounding thing up top.

Congrats to the happy couple ― may they have many other stress-free baseball games together!

Oh, and if anyone cares, the Yankees beat the Red Sox 6-to-4.
