It only takes a moment to make someone’s day.

That’s a fact Tampa Bay Rays infielder Junior Caminero is well aware of, and seems willing to live by, as seen in a video recently put out by MLB.

The video shows Caminero interacting with a young fan before the team’s game against the Kansas City Royals. While the fan seemed already pretty thrilled about taking a photo with the up-and-coming star, his face absolutely lit up with awe as Caminero offered him his bat.

Watch that delightful moment below.

Good work Junior, you just made a fan for life.

Moments like this are why we love baseball.
