Mimicking pitchers' windups has taken on a life of its own in the MLB this season , and said trend continued on Tuesday night in Philadelphia.

With Jose Alvarado on the mound in the top of the 8th inning and the Phillies holding a 3-2 lead over the Washington Nationals, a fan in the stands followed the relief pitcher's every move as he struck out three straight batters with the bases loaded.

Here's a look at the final strike: Naturally, the video went viral andas relayed by the Philadelphia Inquirer's Lochlan March Alvarado has not only seen it, but wants to invite the fan to a game.

"It was awesome," the pitcher told March .

"I talked to my agent.

[I asked] if he can send a message to somebody who works on the team, to find the kid and bring him here.

Give him something.

Maybe my jersey, signed, and a couple of baseballs.

...

I can't wait to see this kid here." While Tuesday night was the 12-year-old fan's first time attending a Phillies game, his performance in the stands may end up lining him up for his second in the near future.

An awesome story..
