Let’s be clear: this kid is having a better night than you’ll ever have at the ballpark. The little guy showed up to the Tropicana Field\u00a0dressed in full Orioles regalia, and is\u00a0seated near the visitor’s dugout. In the first few innings he has:<\/p>\n

\n
• caught a foul ball<\/li>\n
• had a ball flipped to him by Adam Jones<\/li>\n
• received a helmet and sunflower seeds from the dugout<\/li>\n
• appeared on the MASN broadcast more than the Rays’ starting pitcher<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Oh, why the helmet, you ask? Because in addition to the foul ball he caught, a\u00a0screamer\u00a0<\/em>made its way to his area. Apparently someone in the dugout thought it was too close for comfort.<\/p>\n

  That<\/strong> is a ball game experience.\u00a0Orioles fans: you want to be this kid. He looks great in orange. He gets balls without a retrieval device. He gets gear and a snack from the Orioles<\/em>.<\/p>\n

   <\/p>\n

  And best of all, he will have no memory of fourteen years of losing Orioles baseball.<\/p>\n
