Watch: Astros Bullpen Catcher Gives Young Blue Jays Fan a Throwing Lesson

One young Blue Jays fan got a personal baseball lesson from a member of the Astros staff before a game in Toronto this week.

Mike Conley (not the basketball player, or the Olympic medalist) posted a video of his son playing catch with Astros bullpen catcher Javier Bracamonte. We’ve seen MLB players do this sort of thing beforebut Bracamonte went the extra mile and gave Conley’s son a few pointers on how to improve his game.

What an incredible moment at last night’s @BlueJays @astros game. Not only did @bracamonte85 have a catch with my son, he even took time to adjust his grip and throwing mechanics.
