This adorable 4-year-old Astros fan wants to marry Lance McCullers Jr.

Lance McCullers Jr. learned about a special admirer of his on Friday. Young Penny Boyle is not only a fan of the Astros and the pitcher, but the 4-year-old told her mom in a viral Facebook video that she wants something more long term from him: She wants to marry McCullers.

McCullers is already spoken for -- he and his wife Kara have been married since 2015 -- but according to The Houston Chronicle, Boyle doesn't quite know that tidbit of information. She does know that her other favorite players on the team, José Altuve, Carlos Correa and George Springer, are either married or engaged, so that leaves McCullers.
He saw the story and invited Penny and her family to a game:

The girl knows what she wants: "They won the World Serious [sic]," she explained. "Lance McCullers is going to marry me."
Maybe not, but BP passes are a decent substitute.
