Reds fan makes one-handed catch - while holding his son (Video)

A Cincinnati Reds fan made a great one-handed catch of a foul ball - while holding his son in his other arm - during Wednesday's game against Chicago.

It happened in the bottom of the third as Reds batter Joey Votto sent the first pitch of his at-bat foul into the third base stands. The Reds fan held his son safely out of harm's way in his right arm while reaching up high with his left arm to make the great bare-handed grab.  The fan's wife shielded their other young son as the ball came towards them.

After the inning was over, the Reds fan and his entire family landed a television interview with FOX Sports, so a memorable day at the ball park for all of them.
