Perhaps you’ve been following the path of Batkid, the adorable 5 year-old with cancer (civilian name: Miles) who spent Friday doing heroic deeds around San Francisco. It’s a wonderful example of a lot of strangers coming together to make a suffering kid feel great for a day. One such stranger: Lou Seal, mascot of the San Francisco Giants, whom Batkid rescued from a perilous predicament at AT&T Park:
Batkid’s day of heroics included rescuing the San Francisco Giants mascot
Batkid saves the day!
