Something decent to watch on a Christmas night.

But how in the hell is Juan Uribe's catch in Game 4 of the World Series not on the list when Derek Jeter's much weaker yet more lauded catch is number 57?

A travesty! An outrage! Appalling!

_________________

Looks like these catches are based on the importance of the game it happened. So this list is bullshit. That catch Reed Johnson made for the Cubs in CF a few years back is one of the best I have seen.

The one where he had to lay out because he took an awful route to the ball when an average centerfielder would have caught it flat-footed?? Yeah that was great.

Some of the catches are just God awful. One of them a guy didn't leave his feet, caught the ball two feet from the wall and ran into it. I think it's number 52.

Watching the truly great catches are awesome. The Griffey grabs, Hunter and Ichiro. I even think it's ridiculous that Wise's catch is number 9.

How soon til pitchers and catchers report for Spring Training?

Fucking Edmonds...I loved watching him play center...

No Sorano on the list? Interesting.

What about the one Alou made in the playoffs in 03 in game 6. Oh wait thats right.

Steve Bartman was number 101.

If you want to talk about a Cubs snub on that list, the Todd Hollandsworth faceplant in LA is better than Reed Gherig's catch.

I don't think that's a real guy.

Only you and me and ASFB remember him going into the bullpen, Walt.
