We've seen many different kinds of gender reveals, but this one is a home run.

The couple claims they had no idea what their baby's gender was until Freddie's bat connected with the ball to release blue powder. Adorably, Freddie and Chelsea embrace after learning they will welcome a baby boy this September.
