[dojahboyC]

i never seen anybody so happy for a foul ball, just to give it away in generosity. pretty amazing

[Variks-]

He was like I GOT THE BALL *looks at little girl* "god damn it"

[jesusgarcia]

Catch a foul game during a game: become famous for 15 minutes.
Give the ball to a little girl who also wanted it: become a legend.

[lordjordzz]

He’s old enough to understand its just a ball, to her its a memory of how kind humans can be👏

[liveletlive]

_When he swiftly jumped over the chairs, to reach for it, he just won the ball_ ⚾️
*But when he passed that joy to little girl*,
*he won many hearts* 💕

[elbagrau]

He knows how to handle life : be happy and make others just as happy.

[snoopyshultz]

i got it ! i got it ! i got it ! oh damn adorable little girl...here

[speed]

Just the joy the child emits is priceless. Bless that young man.

[cyc]

You now have two choices:
Keep the ball
Or spend ur day making a little kid happy

[arrondavies]

Good lad, he clearly wanted it but it's nice that he didn't really hesitate when he saw the girl

[acemanify]

Very nice of him to give her the ball.

[fredsampson]

This a good kid. His parents must be really proud of him. Good job parents, you raised a great kid!

[boneheadbill]

That's the kind of guy that should be invited to meet the players. Love that man.

[rubbrlizard]

Wow, that guy doesn’t have the decency to compliment that amazing dude. He just says, and the girl wins in the end.

[damianmartelly]

You know the saying 15 minutes of fame? This guy had 5 seconds of it and then left.

[iwannacommentonstuff]

The umpire probably had enough balls in his little pouch to give to all the fans at the park...

[DavidGee]

Considering how that guy reacted like The King Of The World after he picked up the ball, I'm surprised he didn't autograph it before giving it to that little girl. 

[wiefdiwbofdbw]

He really wanted to keep that ball but his momma also raised a gentleman, so..

[michaelhyatt]
