That Catch
OK, I've been searching the Internet for what seems like hours, but I can't seem to find it. This magical "it" is a video of that spectacular catch. I have no name, nor a date, but it's the one where the guy literally jumps on top of the outfield wall to bring back a homer. Can anyone give me a name/date/team/video?

I think I know the one you're talking about. Hiroshima Shimin Kyujyo. Right fielder for the Carp goes out, climbs the fence, makes the catch over his shoulder, and jumps down. I want to say it was three years ago, but it may have been more.
Was it That Catch?

- Are you talking about the one where a left-fielder climbed the fence, put his left foot (or right, not sure which) on the top of the fence, and stuck out his glove to rob the home run?
Masafumi Yamamori is the name of the player who made the catch. He played for the Hankyu Braves back in the 1980s.
I saw a clip of it in YouTube a while ago, but I don't know if it's still around.

Cheers bigman. The first one is the one I was talking about.
About
This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
