We’re less than 15 games into the Major League Baseball season, and we might already have witnessed the catch of the year … and it wasn’t a Big Leaguer who flashed the leather!
In fact, there wasn’t even a glove involved — but instead some sort of … dough?
The highlight reel moment went down during Bo Bichette‘s at-bat at Fenway Park during his Blue Jays team’s tilt with the Red Sox … when the star shortstop fouled a ball off into the stands.
The baseball careened towards a Sox fan, who was holding a plate of food in his hands … but that wasn’t gonna stop him from making the catch.
TV cameras captured the moment … with the announcer commenting, “Where does it wind up? Right in [his] food!”
Despite the spectacular catch — which surrounding fans loved — Bichette was allowed to continue his at-bat.
To top things off for the BoSox, the team rallied from a 2-1 deficit to top their AL East rivals, 4-3, in extra innings.
Talk about sweet victory!
