In the third inning of Wednesday’s game against the Texas Rangers, New York Yankees first baseman Neil Walker hit a home run to center field. But as impressive as the home run was, it paled in comparison to the play made by the fan who caught it.
Just an absurd catch from this @Yankees fan. https://t.co/0YzOFnzVmB pic.twitter.com/znKNZZcEPP

Frankly, we’re not sure that all Major League centerfielders would have held on to that ball. That’s just fantastic attention and balance on the part of this fan.
He has a Major League ball, and a story that can be told for the rest of his life.
