A young fan made an impressive backhand catch of a foul ball with his glove as he leaned over a railing during Tuesday night's Miami Marlins game against the New York Mets.
It happened in the ninth inning as Mets batter Jordany Valdespin hit a foul ball into the stands in short left field at Marlin Park. The young man reached over the nearby railing with his glove and made the backhand catch that would have been tough for anybody, but he made it look easy.
The boy got a big hug from his mom and high-fives from all the fans nearby, and deservedly so.
