Camera Caught Teammate’s Perfect Reaction in Bullpen to Evan Carter’s Beautiful Catch in Rangers’ Win Over Astros

The Texas Rangers took a 1-0 lead in the ALCS after this nifty catch by their left fielder.

The Texas Rangers went into Houston on Sunday night and took Game 1 of the American League Championship Series with an impressive 2-0 victory over the defending World Series champs. 

Left fielder Evan Carter saved the game for the Rangers when he made an outstanding catch in deep left field to rob Alex Bregman of a hit in the eighth inning. Carter then threw the ball into the infield where the Rangers were able to double up José Altuve thanks to his base-running blunder

This photo of Carter’s catch is pretty sweet, and so is the reaction by the guy just to the right of him, who had a perfect view of it from the Rangers’ bullpen:
