During the second inning of Game 5 of the World Series, National’s fan Jeff Adams was walking back to his seat with two cans of Bud Light in hand. It was in that moment, Houston Astros Yordan Alvarez’s home run ball was headed right for him.

Adams had seats sitting in the first row of seats in front of the Budweiser Brew House at Nationals Park. Without a thought, a flinch and without spilling a drop of the brew Adams took a hit to the chest. He did what he was taught to do … kept his chest in front of the ball.
Also, those beers are like $15 a piece — no one in their right mind would drop them.

The ball then fell to the ground in front of his seat and the rest is history.
Just kidding — of course, it was all caught on camera and Adams was contacted by BudLight.
Update: We are in contact with our hero. He’s wearing this beauty to Game 6. pic.twitter.com/CobFG9q8kC
