A whirlwind 24 hours for a young New York Yankees fan took an even more exciting turn Wednesday.

Nine-year-old Derek Rodriguez went viral Tuesday night after Toronto Blue Jays fan Mike Lanzillotta handed him an Aaron Judge home run ball, causing the youngster to break down in tears and hug Lanzillotta.

Before New York's series finale with the Blue Jays, Rodriguez and Lanzillotta were brought to the field to meet Judge, who described the affair as a "special moment."
