Ball girl makes an Amazing Catch

[Bill Pritchard]

We got that via email a couple days ago, too. Sent it on to my brother, who is a baseball fanatic, figuring he'd find it interesting. He hadn't known about the Snopes debunking, but here's his reply....

"That would have been an amazing catch had it actually happened in a game! No question that was staged and the film edited. Catcher was right handed in the first scene with the batter in it, then he's left handed when they show him standing by himself.... not to mention there's no way she'd even be attempting that, running down the line as the ball is hit, during a game even if the left fielder weren't trying to catch it. But it does make for good entertainment!"
