Kid has the most dramatic 'run' to home base during little league game

Someone give this child an Oscar.

This kid has a future in acting.

During a very intense name of little league baseball, the coach told @TabbyRodriguez's younger cousin Lenn to "run home as fast as he can." The little boy did not disappoint, running from third base to home in glorious slow motion.

How could you not hear the Chariots of Fire theme song while watching Lenn run?

And he stayed committed to the craft -- when an adult tried to nudge him forward about halfway through the run, Lenn shoved him off and continued on his journey. Despite the little league viewers' chants of "go go go!" and "you're almost there!" he stuck to his slow-motion run.

At the end of his odyssey, he victoriously collapsed at home base while an exasperated little batter watched. Lenn, after more than 45 agonizing seconds of dramatic running, made it.

What were the other team's parents thinking while watching this?

Holding up the whole game? Lenn didn't care. Clearly, he was having a moment.
