Actor/comedian Chris Rock came up with a foul ball and gave it away to a kid during Thursday afternoon's New York Yankees game against Houston.
It happened in the top of the seventh as Astros batter Jon Singleton hit a foul popup which carried into the front row on the third base side behind the Astros dugout, where Rock was sitting with fellow actor Bobby Canavale. Rock misjudged the ball as it came down, but amazingly, the ball landed right in his seat. What are the odds?
Rock picked up the ball and showed it off to the crowd, receiving a round of cheers. As he looked around, however, Rock saw a boy a few seats away and gave him the ball out of the kindness of his heart. Nice job by Chris Rock.
