VIDEO: Braves bat boy dives for foul ball against Padres

During the Atlanta Braves win over the San Diego Padres Thursday, one of the Braves bat boys was committed to catching a foul ball.

In the seventh inning, the Braves bat boy dove to catch the foul ball hit to right field by Padres’ Freddy Galvis.

The ball bounced before rolling into the bat boy’s glove, but the catch was good enough to receive applause from the sections nearby.
