A fast acting spectator saved a young fan from being whacked by a flying bat at a MLB pre-season game in Florida.
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Danny Ortiz lost hold of the bat and photographer Christopher Horner captured what happened next in a series of frames at the Atlanta Braves' spring training stadium.
The young boy in the firing line had been looking down at his phone when the man next to him flung out a protective arm.
