Watch this fan get super excited after catching Freddie Freeman's home-run ball

As one gets older, one often becomes less excitable. Many of the events that were sources of emotional highs in our youth -- birthdays, concerts, a vacation -- become commonplace over the years. Some things, however, never lose their ability to excite.
During Freddie Freeman's first-inning home run in the Braves' Wednesday loss to the Nationals, one fan showed that catching a baseball at the ballpark is one of those experiences that always produces excitement:

He had to put down his water bottle so he could hold the ball with two hands because, when you get a possession that valuable, you don't want to lose it.
