If you were at a baseball game and managed to catch a foul ball, how would you celebrate? Would you cheer and jump up and down? Would you do the "Are you not entertained?" from Gladiator? Or maybe try dabbing, like the kids at the Scripps National Spelling Bee? [ Join a Yahoo Daily Fantasy Baseball contest now ] Those are great answers, but one fan at Thursday's Milwaukee Brewers-Atlanta Braves game has all of them beat. In the bottom of the seventh inning, Braves catcher Tyler Flowers was facing Brewers reliever Jhan Marinez, and Flowers punched the 1-2 pitch foul. The ball bounded toward the stands on the third base side, but before it could be snatched up by one of the fans in the front row, it bounced off padding in front of the wall and shot up in the air. The ball sailed a few rows into the stands, where a Braves fan caught it. This Braves fan was insanely excited about his catch, and after high fiving everyone around him, he did the signature dance move of legendary wrestler Ric Flair. It wasn't brief, either. He Ric Flair'd all the way across an empty row of seats at Turner Field. Take a look at the original Ric Flair Strut below and you'll see he did a great job. That wasn't the only dancing that happened at Turner Field on Thursday. These fans didn't care that it was raining, and they didn't care what music was playing. They were going to dance. And dance they did. The Braves may have lost 6-2 to the Brewers, but it looks like the fans at Turner Field had a marvelous time anyway.

It's likely just a coincidence that they've won the last two with Stanton sitting out, but at least they're finally showing they can produce offensively when he's not around. Stanton might not play again Friday night against Atlanta. The visiting Marlins could get Christian Yelich back, though, as they open a three-game set against the Braves. Continue to Article
