This is just the best interview, especially given the fact that the fan involved could have been super embarrassed by the situation.
In Sunday’s New York Yankees win over the Houston Astros, a fly ball by Yordan Alvarez could have been caught by Everson Pereira. But a die-hard at Minute Maid Park grabbed it and Alvarez was out due to fan interference.
The fan, however, was found by ESPN and the interview was just amazing. He talked about trying to make the moment special for his son, he apologized to the Astros.
Then? He ran through the emotions, which included “a little bit of lust, baby.”
“Houston loves me and I love Houston,” he added. “And that cannot stop me from supporting the Asteroids.”
Just watch:
