February 15, 200521 yr Ever caught a foul ball at a game, or a homer in batting practice? In August, Miguel hit a towering fly to the RF bleachers, and I almost caught it. This crazy woman was trying to get me to fill out a survey for her school, or something. Needless to say, her presence distracted me. I was a bit mad--but I got over it.
February 15, 200521 yr Author I caught a Lenny Harris BP HR ball last year 686081[/snapback] Don't be fooled..It was a trick of the mirrors... Some kid threw the ball at you from the fence, and Lenny did a phantom swing.
February 15, 200521 yr Only baseballs I ever got at a game were: Foul ball at a West Palm Beach Expos game Baseball thrown to me by Loria after a game in the August 03 game when Mordecai hit the game winning homer. Loria flung balls out to the founders club people after the game since he was so excited. I was sitting in 145 row 2 that night so I got one.

February 15, 200521 yr Perisho gave me a ball at one of the games in Comiskey for wearing an Iowa hat.

February 15, 200521 yr i caught a ball from Hee Seop last year in a game against the reds, and i ended up giving the ball to this kid next to me.. turned out that kid caught another ball from sean casey later on.. and Casey threw it at him because the kid and his dad were his next door neighbors.
February 15, 200521 yr Last season Bartolome Fortunato threw me a foul ball that was hit into the Mets bullpen by Sea Bass only foul ball i've ever literally "caught" was at a Sarasota Redsox game about 4 years ago, I have no clue where that ball is now
February 15, 200521 yr only foul ball i've ever literally "caught" was at a Sarasota Redsox game about 4 years ago, I have no clue where that ball is now 686282[/snapback] I see catching that ball was a moving moment in your life. :mischief
February 15, 200521 yr I've never caught a foul ball. Got a hockey puck at a Panthers game. But I have been on the jumbotron a bunch of times,that is a bigger win for the home team.
February 15, 200521 yr I have a ball thrown to me by Manzy at BP. 686265[/snapback] You made a great catch too!
February 15, 200521 yr I have a ball thrown to me by Manzy at BP. 686265[/snapback] You made a great catch too! 686297[/snapback] Yea, with my camera in my hands and everything. If only Jack would've seen that.
February 15, 200521 yr Author I was on the jumbotron a few times. When I was in sixth grade and my school went on a trip to the game, I was next to Billy when the camera flashed on us. A couple years ago I flashed at a Mets game. At a Dolphin's game when I was a kid (like 10 or 11), they flashed on my row doin the macarena.
February 15, 200521 yr A couple years ago I flashed at a Mets game. 686304[/snapback] :o i'm not sure how im supposed to interpret that
February 15, 200521 yr Author A couple years ago I flashed at a Mets game. 686304[/snapback] :o i'm not sure how im supposed to interpret that 686309[/snapback] Darnit, you little kids... If you read the first sentence, it makes sense!
February 15, 200521 yr A couple years ago I flashed at a Mets game. 686304[/snapback] :o i'm not sure how im supposed to interpret that 686309[/snapback] haha, nice it 2003, i was at a game by myself early in the season...it was pretty empty after a rain delay, so i went from my fish tank seat over to the founders club. in between innings, the jumbotron had an enormous picture that was zoomed in on me (maybe cause i had on a red marlins jersey?) either way, it kinda sucked...one thing is being on when you want to be on, or with friends, or in a crowd...another in having the damn thing zoomed in on you. as for catching balls, the last game of the season in 03 (with the WC clinched), the players in the bullpen were just throwing balls to people for the hell of it. my friend and i each caught one, so that was good. my friend also caught a home run ball once, while he was sitting right next to me, but i dont remember who hit it.
