Baseball fans in awe after Adam Wainwright's son steals the show during his dad's press conference

Cardinals pitcher Adam Wainwright's son stole the show during his dad's press conference on Thursday night post a monumental effort from the MLB vet who helped guide his team to a 16-8 win over the Dodgers.

"Adam Wainwright’s son, Caleb, stole the show at last night’s press conference" - MLB, Twitter.

The 41-year-old, who's plied his trade in the major leagues since 2005, turned back the clock against the Dodgers, pitching five innings with an ER of just two.

It wasn't his performance on the field, however, that everyone was gushing over. It was instead his son Caleb, who had MLB fans in awe of all his cute child hits during the presser. Drumming the mike and wanting a kiss among other things garnered plenty of laughs and had fans gushing over his cuteness on social media.

MLB fans applauded the heart-warming father and son relationship, with a majority reserving extra praise and attention for the little one.

Adam Wainwright is a three-time MLB All-Star

Picked up by the Atlanta Braves with the 29th overall pick in the first round of the 2000 amateur draft, Wainwright made his MLB debut on Sept. 11, 2005.

A one-team man all his major league career, Wainwright has only played for the St. Louis Cardinals, almost certainly establishing himself as a club legend.
