Bob Costas Saves Restaurant-Goer's Life With Heimlich Maneuver
Bob Costas Saves Restaurant-Goer's Life ... Quick-Thinking Heimlich!!!
Bob Costas is apparently just as good in life-or-death situations as he is in the broadcasting booth ... 'cause he recently saved a restaurant-goer from choking.
A rep for Costas says the Hall of Fame play-by-play man was out grabbing a bite to eat when he noticed a fellow diner gasping for air -- so he raced in to help out.
According to the rep, the 71-year-old performed the Heimlich maneuver ... saving the person's life. But, afterward, he made it clear he wasn't looking for accolades.
"Bob doesn’t think this was that big of a deal," the rep told Page Six.
"He really feels he did what just about anyone else would do in a similar situation."
"Roberts comes to get Kershaw. He's had a rough time before in the postseason. This has to be the worst of all those outings."

Costas -- who's been broadcasting MLB playoff games this month -- has yet to publicly comment on the heroic deed.
