Sorry to make you cry first thing on your Saturday, but at least they will be tears of joy.

On Tuesday, a baseball fan was invited to throw out the first pitch for the Kansas City Royals's game against the LA Dodgers. In the video, Austin Sides steps up to the pitcher's mound, and lobs a pretty great throw over home plate. But that's not the best part. 

The catcher runs up to the mound to congratulate Austin on his throw, and on his way, he takes off his mask. Surprise! It's his dad, Air Force Major Robert Sides!

Until that very moment, Austin thought his dad was still deployed overseas.
