Justin Verlander turns a Starbucks stop Friday morning in Lakeland, Fla., into a chance for a good deed.
He snapped this selfie before the young fan in front of him could turn around and be surprised to see his hero.
Evan Jankens of CBS Detroit sets the scene:
While getting a coffee or maybe a tea –we don’t judge — Verlander noticed a young fan of his and decided to take a selfie behind his back. He used the caption: “Love having my fans support!! This little guy was pretty surprised when he turned around.”
We could only wish he had followed it up with a picture of the look on the kid’s face when he turned around and saw Verlander behind him.
