Joel Jensen reminded baseball fans Monday why the Little League World Series is so special.
During his team's consolation game against Italy, the Oregon manager came out for a mound visit after his son, Isaiah, issued a leadoff walk in the fifth inning. Joel's message was unlike anything you'd ever hear in a major-league game.
"Hey, I just came out to tell you how much I love you, as a dad and a player," Joel told Isaiah. "You're doing awesome out here."
So are you, dad.
