Father's Day may be a few days old but it's not too late to show a dad some love. 

While performing his fatherly duties at the Cubs-Dodgers game, a fan reached out and grabbed an incoming foul ball in front of Dodgers' first baseman Adrian Gonzalez.

Miraculously, he caught the foul ball in one hand while hold the baby in the other.

The batter was called out due to fan interference but this dad still wins the night and maybe the season.

Happy late Father's Day.

 

UPDATE: After the game, Cubs manager Joe Maddon admitted he was pretty impressed by the catch.

"That was outstanding," he said. "You worry about the baby, of course. But it looked like he had it under control. It looks like he's done that before. That was a great play. Great play. Really, there's some levity invovled for the entire audience. I thought it was great."
