If this story isn't inspiring I don't know what is. Michael Kacer is a man who fought for us in Afghanistan. He's a veteran and he's a hero. So, it couldn't be more fitting for Michael to get a standing ovation and a souvenir at a Yankee game last Friday night after he caught a foul ball with his hat over the railing at the stadium. Check out the video below:Mr. Kacer lost his arm in a rocket attack in Afghnaistan back in 2008. He caught the ball, waved to the crowd and gave the ball to his nephew Isaiah. Kacer was wearing a Achilles International shirt. That organization is a non-profit group that uses sports to help bring hope and inspiration to people with disabilities. How fitting.
According to Kacer who spoke to Fox News, "All I kept thinking was, I've gotta get this ball for my nephew."
True soldiers never do for themselves, they always do for others. A salute to Michael Kacer.
