This is easily the best moment the Atlanta Braves have had at home this season.

U.S. Marines staff sergeant Clayton Walker, who's been deployed for the past 11 months, surprised his 10-year-old daughter Cassidy before Wednesday's game.

Cassidy, who was invited to sing the national anthem with a chorale group, already was emotional after watching a video from her dad, and then was completely overjoyed when he popped out of the dugout to surprise her.
