There are few things better in sports than watching a proud parent beam with joy over their child’s success. Mason Black’s family afforded us this awesome opportunity on Monday afternoon.
With the former third-round draft pick making his MLB debut against the Philadelphia Phillies, of course his parents were going to be there to support him. When Black eventually notched his first career strikeout in the early goings, his dad was simply over the moon.
He was almost at a loss for words before simply saying what he felt in his heart. Moments like this remind you what sports and life are all about:

Oh, goodness, who’s cutting onions? Cut it out!
The Black family will probably remember this moment for the rest of their lives — as they should — because that little speech right there is just special.
