Very much an error.
The ball went into the stands.
it was a big error
no need to make the throw, no chance to get the runner
Albert Pujols for Cubs Starting 1B in 2011
but no runs scored
so its harmless

ok, I still haven't seen the catch.
MLB.TV is ridiculously delayed for me right now.

Nice catch, but I have to wonder if there are other RFers out there who wouldn’t have made that look quite so difficult…

I would've liked Brian Roberts to be playing 2nd instead, if you ask me.

I thought I’d heard a rumor about that somewhere. Went pretty much unnoticed around here, though.
I hear Jake Peavy plays a mean 2nd.

something about him is endearing, and I have some fond memories of that magical season…

Showed the replay of DLee’s catch near the stands. They showed after he caught it, the fan took a swipe at the ball after he caught it. Thank God he missed, but funny.
