Too bad Billy Buckner could not have handled that ball as well as this young lady handled this one.

Not everyone gets to field a grounder at Fenway.

She should have thrown to first base.

Armando Galarraga would have been just another forgotten pitcher who threw a perfect game had it not been for the bad call by the 1st base umpire.........

For bad or for worse, Buckner will never be forgotten........LOL!

The Royals had a ball boy do the same thing a couple of weeks ago. He was absolutely crushed but the Royals manager went over to him between innings, put his arm around his shoulder, and made sure he was all right. Mistakes happen.

A male ball attendant did that a few years back, and he was relieved after the end of the half inning and never appeared again. Any (Red) Sox fan is familiar with that young lady’s impressive fielding skills on foul balls. Especially after a player makes an error and the following batter hits a foul ball her way.
