Doing 14U B ASA last night and witnessed one of the best catches
I have seen, especially at this age. Bases juiced, two outs,
team in field is ahead by one. CF is playing in unusually short
it seemed to me, but after this play I think the coaches knew her
capabilities.
A hard hit ball to CF, F8 turns around and heads for the fence
220 feet and glancing over her shoulder makes a "Say Hey Willie"
catch with back to the plate, craches into fense [chain link]
turns and presents the ball. Ball game.
