A young Tigers fan was extremely excited to catch a foul ball from Mookie Betts

Almost every kid who goes to a baseball game wants to catch a foul ball. Who wouldn't want that kind of permanent souvenir of a trip to the ballpark? It doesn't even matter if someone from the other team hits it -- it's still glorious.
Just ask this young fan at Comerica Park who made a nice catch on Mookie Betts' foul ball in the top of the third inning during Saturday's 5-0 Tigers win. He was wearing a Miguel Cabrera T-shirt, but that didn't mean he was any less excited after reeling it in:

It's difficult to match that kind of pure excitement about anything in life.
The top of the third was apparently the inning for smooth catches by Tigers fans. The next batter, Andrew Benintendi, smoked a foul that was snared, bare-handed:

Very generous of the Red Sox hitters, if you ask us.
