Orioles Mom Goes Wild: Watch Reaction to Mancini's Home Run at Camden Yards
Trey Mancini hit one out of the park, sending his mother over the moon at Tuesday night's Baltimore Orioles game at Camden Yards.
When Trey Mancini hit a home run on his first major league hit, no one was prouder than his mother. Cameras captured the moment during the Orioles-Red Sox game when she completely lost it as Mancini knocked one out of the park.
Mancini, 24, played for the Bowie Baysox and Aberdeen IronBirds until making it onto the Baltimore Orioles lineup this week. Before going pro, he played at Winter Haven High School in Florida and the University of Notre Dame in Indiana.
He stepped up to the plate to make his first major league hit at Camden Yards Tuesday night and the crowd went wild, especially his mom, as he knocked it out of the park. "I can't believe it!" she said.
