On Saturday I was at Angel Stadium and I saw the greatest catch of my lifetime.
I was sitting near the A’s dugout when this play happened. I didn’t realize the time how difficult the catch was. I saw it and was shocked that he made the catch.
Then it all was a blur. The ball was in the air and reached Mark Canha’s glove to complete the double play. What did I just witness?
I still was processing that the ball did not hit the cut-off man. It was after viewing numerous replays did it come to me that the throw was at 321 feet and it was on the money.
There was a shocked reaction to the stadium. A’s fans cheered. Angels fans were quiet. But I don’t think that anybody realized the greatness we just witnessed.
What a throw! What a catch! Amazing!
I am still in shock.
