The daughter of baseball legend Joe Torre made a perfect catch when she grabbed a baby boy falling from a building in New York City, reports said.
Cristina Torre was reported to be "in shock" after she caught the one-year-old before he fell to the ground.
Ms Torre, 44, had been walking in Brooklyn on Wednesday morning when she spotted the boy hanging from the awning of the building, the New York Daily News reported.
The boy fell, but landed in Ms Torre's outstretched arms.
"The baby was dangling," she recalled.
"I just put out my arms when I saw him coming down, and luckily he literally landed straight in my arms on his back."
A witness, Kristen Bramsen, told the New York Daily News: "The baby was shaken. Everyone was going up to the woman and hugging her. I hugged her."
Joe Torre said he was 'proud' of his daughter's actions "She just smiled and said she was in shock," Ms Bramsen added.
The boy is thought to have crawled through a piece of cardboard placed next to an air conditioning unit in the window of his family's second-floor home and fell onto the awning.
The baby was taken to Lutheran Medical Centre where he was being treated for lacerations to the face, reports said.
Both parents have been taken into custody and charged with reckless endangerment and acting in a manner injurious to a child under 17.
Joe Torre, a former all-star catcher, was New York Yankees' manager from 1996 to 2007, leading the team to four World Series championship titles.
"I am very proud of my daughter Cristina's actions today during an incident in Brooklyn involving a small child," he said in a statement.
"Fortunately for that child she was in the right place at the right time to lend a hand."
