Catching a foul ball at a baseball game is pretty much as good as it gets for a little kid. But one 8-year-old from Sydney, Australia decided that doing the right thing is worth more than any baseball.

During a recent game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Team Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground, an Aussie player threw a foul ball right at an excited young fan, 7-year-old Cooper Manning. The ball missed, and a security guard picked it up and handed it to another kid -- Brendan, 8, also sitting in the front section with his family.

Little Cooper began to have a meltdown when he saw the coveted ball intended for him go to someone else. Luckily, Brendan is possibly the nicest kid in the world, and knew it wouldn't be right to keep the souvenir, and handed it off to Cooper.

He may not have the foul ball, but he has our respect!
