AI-generated summary reviewed by our newsroom.

- He filmed his father acting as a human crane and grabbing a giant banana.
- Video posted by Pasquantino framed the moment as an impromptu Father’s Day celebration.
Father’s Day came early for the Pasquantinos.
Royals first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino and his family recently visited a Dave & Buster’s, and he put his father in the “Human Crane.” Or maybe dear ol’ dad made the choice willingly.
Whatever the case, Pasquantino shot video of his father doing his best to grab a toy. If you’ve ever played with a claw machine at an arcade, you know the object of the game is to grab a prize.
And that’s what Pasquantino’s father did. In fact, he went above and beyond by grabbing a pair of toys: a huge inflatable banana and a ball. Alas, rules dictate he could only take one item (which seems silly).
He chose the banana.
Pasquantino rightfully crowned his father as a “legend” as it was an impromptu father’s day. And Pasquantino deserves special mention for sharing video of his dad acting as a huge claw.
