Baby reveal involves cutout sonogram at Reds’ ballpark

-

CINCINNATI — This surprise baby reveal was a home run.

When Aaron Nemo was asked to help his brother and sister-in-law announce they were expecting their first child, he wanted to hit it out of the park. So he decided to cut out their sonogram picture and submit baby Nemo to be a fan cutout at the Cincinnati Reds’ spectator-less Great American Ballpark, WXIX-TV reported.

“I wish I could say my heart was in an amazing place from the beginning, and I was just there to do something very sweet, but I kind of wanted to do something weird,” Aaron Nemo, who lives in

Brooklyn, New York, told the station.

Adam Nemo, who lives in Florida with his wife, says he didn’t expect his brother to announce the pregnancy in the seats of a ballpark. But his father is a Reds fan, and he was wearing a Reds T-shirt when his wife got an ultrasound.

Both brothers say watching games has now turned into “finding

Nemo" as they scan the stands for the cutout.

“Every time there’s a foul ball down the right-field or left-field line, I pause it and am like, ’Is that, is that the baby?’” Aaron said.

Reds officials say family members should be able to see the baby’s cutout on the third-base line.
