Major props to Zack Hample, the New Yorker who keeps proving that when it comes to his hobby of "snagging" baseballs, luck has nothing to do with it.

Only one week removed from catching two of the last home runs ever hit at Yankee Stadium, Hample came up big again on Sunday, getting into postion to catch the final homer hit by the Mets at Shea Stadium, a blast to left field from Carlos Beltran against the Marlins.

My wife caught a foul ball at a Nats game this year.

And by catch I mean it rolled and hit her in the foot and she picked it up...

There was a guy last season here in Houston that caught 2 home run balls in the same game. He was sitting in the crawford boxes out on the short porch in left.
