PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Sunday is indeed all about the mothers, but a father took a little bit of the spotlight at the Phillies game.

A father made a miraculous one-handed catch of a foul ball hit by a Mets player early in the game. To make things even more difficult, the father had his young baby strapped to his chest.

The catch resulted in several cheers throughout the section as the father (and by extension the baby) turned to greet the crowd and flex his muscles following the chest.
