You May Run Like Mays, But You Catch Like Nyet

I decided stick figure theater was the best way to convey my catch in last night's softball game¹. I've now made two of the best softball catches of my life in the Scottsdale Friday Night C League². Crazy. Just note that this catch was backhanded, made on a full sprint after about 100 feet, past horizontal and I landed on my face without hurting myself. Or, something like this:

¹My shoulder is not quite 100%, but no significant pain last night while swinging last night in a 5-7, 3 2b, 1 3b effort. Huzzah.

²These two, a homerun robbing layout over my shoulder grab at Rice while on Paul's team (Paul & John Doll both commented that the plays on Sportscenter's Top 10 the next day were weak by comparison), a layout line drive stab at shortstop for an unassisted triple play in Arlington, and a 50 yard sprint layout into a pile of branches catch of a towering foul ball at Rice. You know, if you're keeping track.
