Kris Bryant gave the Chicago Cubs a 2-1 lead with a bases loaded double in the second inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers in game one of their Tuesday double header. A lucky Cubs fan also got a souvenir, as Bryant's hit bounced into the stands down the left-field line.
Yet, before that young Cubs fan got to experience any joy, all you could see was fear on his face. He put his glove out, as the ball bounced in the air toward the seats and the ball settled right in the pocket. This poor kid probably thought he ruined the chance of the Cubs scoring an extra run, as the bases were loaded, but the ball was going out of play no matter what. Enjoy it kid, you got a ball! And well, after the initial panic went away he did celebrate.
But those first few seconds, that kid was definitely having flashbacks of Steve Bartman. He's seen the highlights and probably the 30 for 30 documentary on ESPN too.
