Now that’s multitasking!

Parents are the true masters of juggling many things at once. And one father proved just that at a Los Angeles Dodgers game on Sunday afternoon.

With the Dodgers in the field, St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Tommy Edman was up at bat. With a swing, Edman knocked a foul ball down the first baseline.

The ball travelled through the air and into the stands where a Dodgers fan, who had a baby strapped to his chest and a drink held in his left hand, caught the ball with his right hand.


The orange-sunglasses-wearing dad then proudly hoisted the ball in the air as spectators around him cheered his amazing, highlight reel-worthy feat.

The Dodgers shared a 12-second clip of the catch on social media and many responders were impressed.

“Dad power at dodger stadium is insane,” one person tweeted.

“Talk about dad energy,” another proclaimed.

“This is the trifecta of baseball and what we all as fathers aspire to. It’s the pinnacle. Triple BBB Baby beer baseball,” one stated.

It’s safe to say this Dodgers fan will have a wild story to tell his offspring for years to come.
