A young Phillies fan got an unexpected up-close moment with Andrew McCutchen and it was incredibly adorable

The moments we don't expect are often the ones that resonate the deepest. That's absolutely applicable to the experience on Friday night by one young Phillies fan.

Not only did his team beat the Rockies, 6-4, in the game, but he came face-to-face (or face-to-glove, if you want to argue semantics) with outfielder Andrew McCutchen in a completely unexpected and unforgettable way.

That, right there, is a memory that kid will cherish forever. And rightly so, since Cutch is among the best personalities in the game today.

On a second level, this exemplifies the inherent benefit of supporting the home team at a given game (if that's your preference).
