How Tom Holliday is watching his grandson, Jackson, grow in the MLB the same way his son, Matt, did

Matt Holliday asked his father, Tom Holliday, the same thing Tom's wife, Kathy, did.

Did you see it?

Tom Holliday got word that his grandson, Jackson Holliday, hit his first major league home run on July 31 — a grand slam at that — via a phone call from his wife, Kathy. Tom was en route to Will Rogers Airport in Oklahoma City to pick up Matt, Leslee and Ethan Holliday after a baseball showcase in Arlington.

He almost wrecked Matt’s truck when he heard the news.

And when he reached the OKC airport is when Matt asked him those four dang words.
