[@SpencerStriderEnthusiast]

the kid at 5:54 diving down a row of seats to make the catch might be the best of all time

[@harrisjordan7492]

Coaches be like: Give that kid a contract!!!

[@AussieAlex]

props to the dude that helped catch the kid so he didn't get hurt

[@TheComedicCubeYT]

The kids better than the A’s

[@earthwormandruw]

Agreed!

[@earthwormandruw]

@@TheComedicCubeYThey now ...

[@ontherun5627]

That last one seriously brought a tear to my eye. The sheer odds! Two great grabs by the kid! And that call from the announcer - "Beer, baby and baseball" - what a game!

[@JakeRaymond7]

I loved that the crowd gave him a standing ovation

[@GeorgeLennon100]

that last catch by the kid was truly remarkable. Catching two foul balls within a matter of minutes.

[@gabrieltorres7596]

From the same batter too. Man time flies, that kid ain't a kid today realizing that's Josh Hamilton so this was likely late 2000s early 2010s.

[@ryancooke4028]

@@gabrieltorres7596I checked and that kid is now 53

[@tonyattardo9350]

And he held both in one tiny hand like a boss 😂

[@searchingfornessie8410]

The chances of that happening in the same at bat are astronomical. I tried doing the math and my computer self detonated.

[@brainards11]

The probability of that is astronomical!

[@jwood8397]

2:40 “this is where dads preform” 🤣

[@nerdynerd6724]

A beverage, a baby, and a baseball. ⚾️ great line @4:50

[@bigk4026]

Sounds like an ideal night to me

[@joalco3]

Such a unique aspect about baseball. Loved the announcers calls of these

[@bobbygee1771]

how can you say its unique when the exact same thing happens at cricket matches

[@awsomestleaperd78]

​@@bobbygee1771because cricket balls don't move as fast as baseballs. Also cricket is awful

[@JBades6310]

Yeah I had the same thought. To all those that think baseball is boring, they need to be shown this video

[@wavedog23]

Kid at 1:52 probably saved his bud from what would've otherwise been an expensive hospital visit; champ stuff, baby!

[@katharina...]

For sure. I'm completely mesmerized by this one, I have no idea how he did this.

[@chuckymeyerme]

I think he blocked his buddies vision not allowing him to see where it was honestly. I watched it on playback at .25 speed, so

[@TheLoneCamper]

​@@katharina... Ditto. He braced for impact when it passed through his hands, baffled why he somehow wasn't in pain. Who reversed time? What happened? lol

[@luisgordillo1695]

Dental for sure 🤣🤣

[@BugsySiegel5]

Facts!

[@Trevil666]

1:53 that kid and his bro are going to argue about this for the rest of their lives. "I saved you. You owe me your soul." "I've been telling you for 40 years, I was tracking that ball right up until you threw your glove in front of my eyes." "Nah you owe me."

[@JBades6310]

phenomenal comment right here

[@JimboBillyBob]

@@JBades6310 its exactly how it will go lol but that kid absolutely saved his brother from having some tough surgery.

[@kimchi2780]

Never underestimate a dad with a beer in his hand and a baby in a joey pouch.

[@dash4800]

If you fielded a team of players who were all dads wirh beers in one hand and a baby strapped to their chest it would be unstoppable

[@OrtaPottyProd]

That catch by the cardinals fan at 1:55 should be way higher, that is actually incredible...

[@The_Pennsylvanian]

Watching a kid make a nice play on a ball at a big league game and get a cheer for it, is what its all about 🇺🇲

[@rosembergarias50]

Amen brother 🇺🇸

[@coreyhanson2480]

I’m fully convinced that if you catch a ball in your beer cup, you have to chug it. Even if it spills all over you it’s the right thing to do.

[@loveinthematrix]

For sure

[@DCGZombies]

I feel like it’s just an unspoken rule at games

[@MikkiChavez]

​@@DCGZombiesdefinitely a rule idc lol

[@devin8297]

Smiled all the way through this video😂

[@torspedia]

I bet the guy holding the kid, while he caught the ball, had a strong talking to by the mother when they got home. 😂

[@jarodmorris4408]

You mean his ex? lol. I hope not and no, that's not a reason to leave someone.

[@enotsnavdier6867]

​@jarodmorris4408 What is this assumption? If that was my kid and my wife, did that I'd certainly be angry. That's an incredibly high risk of dropping the kid

[@ilovehaterunning]

you mean the dad who stretched way out over the railing?? 🤪

[@Redman147]

Love when the fans gave a standing o to the kid. That was magnificent getting two catches.

[@MF_Reinhold]

The crowd going nuts is what makes this video awesome!!!

[@hotchy78]

" A beverage a baby and a baseball" brilliant 😂

[@nathanmays7926]

6:41 what’s so amazing about that? 7:00 holy sh….

[@drunkenramblingswithaaron7708]

1:59 kid just saved his friend from years of surgeries!

[@shadow_crne1030]

2:40 This is where Dads perform 😁........... 3:10 Great play minimal spillage 😅.......... I love these commentators.

[@kye698]

1:57 kid really saved homie from getting a nose job fr

[@leer.watson4673]

Love the anticipation of hearing the crowd.

[@theramplocal]

3:25 Phil Kessel w the one handed snag lol

[@LetsTravelThroughTime]

I'm British and have zero interest in or knowledge of baseball. But... I could watch these all day. 😂 I said to myself on the last one, great, once in a lifetime memory, then he catches another! 😂 Brilliant

[@Ghoopty]

Baby strapped on, beer in one hand, catching a screaming foul ball in the other ~ these are the real heroes 😅🤘

[@johnmorris8444]

When I was a kid I was at a Phillies game in old veteran stadium and it was mostly empty but there was a high pop up that looked like it was going to nail this guy that was walking with both hands full of food on the catwalk between 2 sets of bleachers. Everyone was holding their breath thinking this guy was going to get hit in the head and drinks and food where going to go everywhere. Instead the guy puts all his food down and catches the ball in his hat. The small crowd cheered louder for that than they did for the whole game.

[@jaxsonwalt]

Those dads were the true definition of “I could’ve gone pro”

[@SamuelGeist]

What I truly love about moments like these is that these may be the moments that cement a love of a sport in a young fan's heart. A kid who liked baseball might change their whole focus after a great catch like some of these.

[@polyaplus]

In baseball, even fans can play, and that's beautiful!!!

[@Panster7]

I love this so much. Just pure joy

[@MajesticDemonLord]

Honestly - the whole monologue about Dads performing - was just wholesome.

[@zennyspent]

I'll admit it. There is an actual feel-good moment involving Machado now. Never thought I'd see the day.

[@grimreaper1542]

This just makes me realize how dangerous this would be if you're not paying attention, or if you can't catch, and get smashed by a ball.

[@jtknight4647]

One baby, one baseball and one beer…now that’s an epic fan-catch

[@dan_2584]

The catch at the 2:00 mark has to be my favorite. Dude saved his buddy about 7 reconstructive face surgeries

[@glennkreisel7943]

Truly I wanna know the odds of that kid catching 2 foul balls in that quick of succession 😂😂

[@stephenduphily9341]

I don't watch baseball, but this made me happy. Thanks YT, God bless all who read this.

[@skylarmurphy2818]

the audio in this vid is crazy!!!! The sound of a baseball hitting a baseball bat...IS Americas Passtime.

[@dazdaz105]

A left handed back hand catch whilst not spilling your beer is definitely a lifetime goal 👌

[@geoffreyfaltot1006]

If you ever think you're decent at catching fly balls, just remember there are middle age dads beer in hand bare handing 97mph foul balls unexpectedly and not being paid a dime to do it.

[@motherjesse]

That was wholesome af.

[@jameslighterGTR]

Server falls down a step and drops an order at 4:23. Left hand side first row.

[@timothybrown5999]

Good eye

[@kobyschechter8163]

In July 2017, I was with my camp at a Scranton Wilkes-Barre Railriders game and I caught a foul ball cleanly off a ricochet with my glove. Everyone went absolutely nuts at my catch. I was at the back of the section my camp was sitting in so everyone had a great view of me making the catch. I made sure not to lose the ball even all these years later. Whenever I play catch with someone, I always use a professional baseball. I have a few other ones.

[@Tigirismoon]

I love the fact that when the kids get the ball (everyone really) all the fans are cheering and the people who almost got it are cheering as well and high fiving!

[@Tmb1112]

Love seeing everybody get so hyped when it happens. Humanity

[@reduxmod9178]

The most entertaining part of any baseball game ever.

[@derksforeal7960]

Hits it to Rick Vaughn 😂

[@super_terram]

Literally better than actual baseball.

[@alexander1989x]

The catches are more entertaining than the game, lol

[@gunnercampbell5374]

Why was the old guy so upset about the chug after the beer catch🤣🤣🤣

[@reactivereplays5666]

Seeing all these random fans catch the ball with one bare hand and the other hand full. I think the athletes should go bare handed now.

[@durango8882]

😂 I was watching this game when he made the catch BRAVO 👏🏻

[@josephracicot4443]

THAT GUY WITH THE COWBOY HAT THOUGH!

[@walkingnyc1]

A Baby, A Beverage, A Baseball..... No Problem! I got this...

[@Banyo__]

What are the actual odds of the same person catching a second ball in a game in the same spot? Wow, I'd give him a standing ovation too!

[@leorc564]

That's amazing! Last play, 2 consecutive foul catch! Wow boy! Buy the lotto!!!😂😂😂😂

[@old_school_4ever]

4:23 that poor lady almost fell... 😂

[@Smratboy]

Not even a fan of baseball but some damn good vibes here.

[@pahtar7189]

I was at a Mariners game in the Kingdome when attendance was maybe 30,000 so no one was seated in the third deck. A few intrepid fans were up there anyway, trying to walk away with some souvenirs. One guy was on the left field side above the dugout, and he caught three foul balls in one inning!

[@BobBarker-xk5vz]

The guy who was next to the cowboy hat had proper etiquette Wasn't over zealous about chasing it into someones personal space Respect

[@videnez]

if we could bottle that feeling of catching a ball in the stands, we’d have flying cars and teleporters in most places.

[@davidsr9719]

MISSING! July 2021 game of Diamondbacks vs Giants. Dad catches a ball while juggling a baby and a beer! That one should be NUMBER 1

[@dwaynepeterson3927]

I caught two fouls balls in one game what I didn’t realize that was my lifetime limit. Not one foul ball in over thousand games has even been close to me.

[@timothybrown5999]

Were both on a fly right to you, or did you have to move for one of them? Just curious

[@dwaynepeterson3927]

@@timothybrown5999 well I was kid so I was seat hopping when the ushers were not looking lol. One was caught in Lower reserve and the next in Lower Box. It was at Candlestick in the mid 80’s.

[@timothybrown5999]

@@dwaynepeterson3927 that’s more of what I expected. It’s still impressive, but much more of an anomaly in a packed house than a mostly empty Stick. That’s where I went to my first game too, in 87.

[@dwaynepeterson3927]

@@timothybrown5999 my first Giants game was at the Stick in 1979. Giants vs Astros

[@akirk1573]

What a cool compilation. That young fella snagging two ? : standard deviation, and some God-light too.

[@michaelhenry8091]

Man dude holding a baby just to catch a foul ball over the railing seems so wrong to me why risk it? lol

[@josephracicot4443]

When he arrives at the gates of heaven, he is greeted by applause from all the angels for that one glorious best moment of his life when he caught the foul ball with his baby in the other hand.

[@dingodog5677]

Some of these are more impressive than the players catches. No gloves, holding a beer, holding ur baby,minimal spillage. That take some special skills.

[@no_one_of_that_name_here]

Nah there was one where a dude was holding a baby and snatched the foul ball from the opposing team’s player. That’s the best one ever.

[@ozzybloke-craig3690]

Has anyone ever been injured or worse? I would not be surprised if it has happened before.

[@ajds]

Nice! Thank you MLB.

[@awblackstar3421]

That was dumb to risk the baby- if he slipped out he would have fell over 15 feet.

[@ChickenSoupMusic]

This is wholesome

[@NotPaulAvery]

How can you not be romantic about baseball? Great highlight reel

[@bradydavis11]

They should institute a rule stating if a fan catches a foul ball, the batter gets a strike..

[@user-lf3hy7wl3t]

The phillies have such a nice stadium

1:55 if that had hit what kind of damage would that have done?!?

[@user-qm2lv2nl2b]

This is so cool to watch and also nice that they can keep the ball. In soccer they are that pathetic to take away the ball from kids and throw them out of the stadium.
