During Tuesday night’s Orioles game against the Mariners, a dad in the stands caught a home run ball off of Manny Machado’s bat.
Look at this adorable dancing baseball baby
All together now: Awwww!
We know he was a dad not because he had small children sitting next to him grabbing for the ball, or a tired teenager in an Orioles hat in the seat nearby, but because he straight up had his child strapped to him in a baby carrier.
Or at least I hope it was his child.
After he caught the ball, he started dancing around and OH MY GOD HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A TINY CHILD HAPPIER?!
I mean, you probably have because there are a lot of cute babies in the world and this one isn’t allowed to monopolize the cuteness, but it’s still a lot. This is a very cute baseball baby, that is for sure.
Later in the game it got a little sleepy, but that’s why gifs of babies exist. So that we can all remember it as it was in the bottom of the sixth inning, joyful, and not when it was tired and possibly a little cranky later on.
