But on Tuesday afternoon at Wrigley Field, a Chicago Cubs fan who looked to be in his teenage years really did channel his inner-Rowengartner, almost perfectly reenacting the epic movie scene with a rocket throw from his front-row bleacher seat in left field. The ball reached the infield and rolled toward the visiting dugout, which was ironically occupied by the Giants.
The long toss happened during the ninth inning of San Francisco's 13-7 victory in the first game of their day-night doubleheader sweep. Miguel Tejada(notes) hit a clothesline that exited Wrigley Field quickly. The fan seen pictured above made a nice grab of the liner without the assistance of a glove and then immediately turned to fire the ball back on the field.
No ball-switching trick for this kid. He meant business.Source: www.sports.yahoo.com
