Well done Devil.

Re: MESSAGE FROM THE DEVIL

I have the Derby on video on HD and i went back to watch the Devil's catch, #20 and the only thing you can see is his hand going up with the ball. Someone in an extremely bright yellow shirt is totally faceguarding Devil, so you can't see him at all. The camera didn't zoom in on him because they showed two little kids who got a Hamilton autograph about 5 seconds after the Dev made his catch.

Josh #21 went into the upper tank and they showed a closeup of the guy who caught the ball and his friend hugging him, so its kind of a bad beat we didn't see the Dev.

HR #20 appeared to hit the top of the scoreboard and carum down, this one looked like it was a few feet from going out of the stadium....it blends in with the scoreboard so its really hard to tell where it initially hit.

Re: MESSAGE FROM THE DEVIL

20 was in the bleachers, 21 was in the upper deck.

the guy in the bright yellow shirt was blocking you.

But, later on, on the 26th and 27th homers i believe, they were close enough to where you were sitting that you might be in some camera shots. I'll take another look later.
 
Re: MESSAGE FROM THE DEVIL

Great catch Sir! I was watching it last night and it was a mad house, so the fact you got one was a slim chance. I know your boys must be happy!

Re: MESSAGE FROM THE DEVIL

Devil, that is too once-in-a-lifetime cool to report so calmly.

You gotta embellish this for the grandkids as they get older... Add a little sizzle to the story...

"Yeah, I was leaning over the rail, facing a drop onto the concrete floor fifty-feet below. I was holding my grandson in my right arm, and my left, the one I injured while saving that Vietnamese village in '69, was left dangling uselessly at my side.

But somehow, for the first time in almost 40 years, a power came over me, and I was miraculously able to raise my left arm over my head and get my hand directly in the path of that baseball, a ball traveling at least 500 mph.

An intense pain shot up my arm, but my fingers locked in on that hard-leather sphere.

It was mine."

Devil, Are you going back tonight? If so, wave.
