Looking at the Game of Baseball from all ends of the Spectrum
This Pirate fan never caught a souvenir ball all his life. Not a foul ball nor a homer. Until June 22, that is. Within 15 minutes, he caught three foul balls in a game against the Nats. One off Jason Bay and two off Jack Wilson. Read the story at the Pittburgh Post-Gazette.

This reminded me of an “offbeat version” of this story. Smith Humor, if you will.
Enjoy, DonS.
» August 17, 1957: Richie Ashburn, known for his ability to foul pitches off, hits spectator Alice Roth twice in the same at bat. The first one breaks her nose, and the second one hits her while she is being removed from her seat on a stretcher…The Phils win 3-1 over New York.
yeah but did she get to keep the balls?? ;-)
