The MLB world has a new prodigy stealing the show. This player, a Dominican center fielder hails from Seattle Mariners and has been the talk of the town since his not-so-subtle accomplishments. His game on Monday against the Angels stands as a documentation of his achievements.

The 22 year old Julio Rodrigiez left the Mariners fans in awe with his herculean feat. While there’s more to this story, fans and family applauded this young star’s name getting etched with legendary players. Amidst all the celebration, Julio Rodriguez Sr.’s reaction was the loudest and most adorable.

Touching Reaction To Son’s Massive Achievement On World Stage

A video went viral where Rodriguez Sr’ is seen jumping about like a child celebrating his son’s 30th homer. He shouted loud cheers, “That’s my son, that’s my son!” while watching the game on his phone, not able to contain his excitement. A gesture true to only a proud father, this reaction was truly emotionally rewarding.

No other reaction does justice to Julio’s accomplishment on Monday as much as his own father’s. The game against the Angels had more to it than just Julio’s clutch, record making home run. He became one of the only 4 players to ever make it to the elite 30-30 club in the history of MLB, a club exclusive to players who recorded 30 home runs and over 30 stolen bases. The other three players are Ronald Acuna Jr, Mike Trout and Alex Rodriguez.

With his name juxtaposed with MLB elites, he also stands in line with Alex Rodriguez becoming the 2nd youngest player to ever get there. Not only that, with his 30th home run, Julio Rodriguez is now the 7th Dominican born player in MLB history. Certainly, this calls for a celebration and Mariners fans cheered alongside his father on Instagram too.
