Military dad pretends he's a catcher and surprises his kids after first pitch

A brother and sister in North Carolina got the surprise of a lifetime when they threw out the first pitch at a Carolina Mudcats game.

Cameron and Karley Daigle thought they were just getting a neat opportunity at the ballpark after winning a raffle, but it wasn’t until they met the catcher after the pitch that they realized it was their dad under the mask.

Tech. Sgt, Lance Daigle was deployed overseas for six months and this might be his last deployment before retirement — which got the wheels in motion. He teamed up with the Mudcats and made sure his kids had an unforgettable experience.

This is so great. Please head over to the team’s Facebook page and watch the full thing because it’s great.
