Andrew Benintendi's catch made David Price very excited and WEEI's Joe Castiglione fall out of his chair

By the time you read this, the Red Sox will have held on for a thrilling 8-6 win over the Astros in Game 4 of the ALCS on Wednesday night to pull to within one win of the American League pennant. 
That they did so, however, rests largely on the efforts of outfielder Andrew Benintendi. With Houston's Alex Bregman up with the bases loaded in the ninth against Craig Kimbrel, any number of dramatic things could have happened. But the only thing that did happen was something Red Sox fans will likely talk about for ages:

That. Is. Just. Amazing. 
Had Benintendi missed the ball, it likely would have tied the game at minimum -- or lost it entirely, if the ball rolled all the way to the outfield wall. Instead of either of those scenarios, it was just pure bliss and relief for Boston and its fans everywhere ... and also David Price, who had been warming in the bullpen for a while: 

That's pretty much how most Red Sox fans probably reacted, watching this game's final moments on their TVs or mobile devices. 
Up in the Boston broadcast booth, WEEI's Joe Castiglione's reaction was on par with Price's, as he literally fell out of his chair:  

Sounds about right. 
So, how did YOU react to that jaw-dropping catch?
