Yes, I caught Jason Giambi's HR off Paul Wilson in the 3rd inning on June 4th, "my birthday" in 2003. The Reds beat the Yanks 6-2.
October 1, 200818 yr I have caught 4 foul balls and had Jose Rijo and Barry Larkin both throw me balls from the dugout. It was pretty awesome. I have caught all my foul balls but one from Cinergy Field/great American and the other one from Fenway, which is the most important one to me.
October 1, 200818 yr Got very close to catching a foul ball last Monday at the Reds game but it hit my wife's beer and bounced away.
October 1, 200818 yr Caught 3 at Riverfront, and have several that were tossed to me in BP on summer trips to various stadiums when I was younger...
October 1, 200818 yr Caught a foul ball. I got position, stayed low and wide, kept the others on my back, elevated, ripped it down with both hands, kept it to my chest, and cleared space with my elbows. Only contact Brandon Larsen made all day.:irked:
October 1, 200818 yr I caught a Brandon PHillips foul ball this year against the Brewers, and dropped a Rich Aurilla homer against the White Sox in 06

October 1, 200818 yr Funny story... I was at a Reds game with MJalltheWay and he could have caught a homer from Adam Dunn but moved out of the way beacuse he said he thought the ball would hurt if he caught it :irked: :devil: I told him I would never let him forget about it :fire:
October 1, 200818 yr I caught a Fred McGriff foul ball a long time ago at Riverfront. McGriff was with the Braves at the time...
October 1, 200818 yr How can you not stay low and wide? :sssh::lol: Yep, had you been there, you'd have never had a chance!
October 1, 200818 yr I don't think I'd ever throw a HR ball back...:lol: That is why every time we go to the bleachers at Wrigley we stow a spare ball in my purse or somewhere easily accessible! :lol:
