    They need to add this to MLB. $100k prize pool at each mlb stadium. Every one hand clean catch during regular season results in a share of the prize at end of season. This would 100% sell more tickets. I know I’d go to an extra game or two for this chance. Plus the excitement.

    NZ had this in, was it the 2014-15 summer? Basically a fan at a domestic T20 game took an absurd one-hander reaching down from the front row, and it made enough news that they ran a compeition for the ODIs all summer (which was leading up to the world cup). You had to buy a special orange t-shirt to be eligible. A couple of catches were made by folks without the shirts...
    Anyway, it was very popular and there were very big crowds all summer long. You couldn't do it every year, but it was great publicity.

  • @feelincrispy7053
    @feelincrispy7053 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    There is a very good reason they must throw the ball back. The ball wear and tear is a big part of the bowling sides tactics throughout the game. The bowling side rough one side of the ball and shine the other side of the ball using spit and their pants with the seam separating the 2 sides. This causes the ball to swing when being bowled. Because the wear and tear only happens over many overs (many hours) it's importent to keep the ball in play

      Americans would probably beat the hell out of each other before the ball got there, then miss the ball. Then sue the guy you beat the hell out of because his blood made your hand slippery. Thus causing you to drop the ball. But at a Toronto Blue Jays game, they would apologize for being in the way, and buy you a Molson.

    I love how many stipulations they made to ensure catches didn’t count as catches

    Playing racquetball once I got smacked square in the face with a hard smashed ball, and felt almost nothing. Except my goggles literally split in two and popped off. They took the full force and left my beautiful face unmarked. So yeah, glasses dude was probably pretty lucky...long as the lens didn't shatter and go in his eye, those glasses acted as safety goggles.

    awesome breakdown, and it has an intersting sociological dimension to it: even though apartheid was abolished many years ago, there is still a huge inequality between black an white people in south africa. So I thought it was quite wholesome to see very different looking people both win and celebrate together. gives me hope for our species ✌

      I think I read somewhere it was a kind of fans joke that they wore it to protect their head from that hard cricket ball in the crowd.

    I’m aware this would be very difficult but the amount of people that don’t have an idea of how to effectively barehand catch a ball is astounding to me lol

    • @amireallythatgrumpy6508
      @amireallythatgrumpy6508 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      It's not how to effectively barehand a catch that's the issue, that's how catches are done in cricket if you're not a wicketkeeper. You don't get gloves. The issue here is catching one handed when you're used to using two.

    The only time Ive actually touched a ball at an MLB game was 2018, DJ (he was a rockie for years and I never managed to spell that stupid frenchy name right lol) fouling a fly ball down the 1B line around the foul poll in RF. I had the perfect shot, saw it right away and only had to move over to in front of my brothers seat (who isn't a big sports fan and wasn't trying to catch it). Camped right under it. Unfortunately, it was 10 PM in late september in Denver, and it had been snowing. If it had been summer i guarantee Id have had no problems. But my hand was so cold and raw the seams actually CUT my palm lol. Had a baseball seam pattern literally embossed in my palm for a few days.
    It was also one of the only times I didn't have my glove with me when sitting in a location that one could land. Wouldn't have had any trouble then, not like any fans knocked it out of my grasp or anything. Oh well...

    $105, 000 USD just for catching a homerun is a lot. I figured the conversion would have been much lower

    Very interesting because in America there would be a mon for each ball. Here they seem to give room for the guy to catch it
