Parents always remember where they were when their child did something amazing for the first time, like hit their first Major League Baseball home run.
Some even are lucky enough to be in attendance, and such was the case for Marlins rookie Isan Diaz’s father.
The Miami second baseman stepped to the plate Monday to face New York Mets ace Jacob deGrom as his parents were being interviewed live on TV. Diaz took deGrom deep, and his dad’s reaction was priceless, to say the least.
