WATCH: Mets fan makes incredible catch while holding kid

The Mets are off to an impressive start. But this Citi Field attendee may have the top play of the year thus far.

In the first inning of Tuesday night’s matchup with the Nationals at Citi Field, Mets outfielder Starling Marte hit a two-run shot to centerfield to open the scoring for New York.

The ball proceeded to bounce off the centerfield platform near the Home Run Apple, make its way toward the right-centerfield stands, and land in the right hand of a fan who was carrying a kid in the opposite arm. An incredible display of multi-tasking from a clearcut Father of the Year candidate.
