ESPN’s Buster Olney steals the spotlight at Braves game

Athletes sometimes criticize journalists because they never played the game. Let’s see baseball players pull that routine with ESPN’s Buster Olney, who has caught more foul balls in the stands than most MLB players thanks to this grab.

This hardly seems fair for the sacred plays of the week countdown, as Olney will almost certainly get special consideration for the list given his network affiliation. He would be the only guy making a catch while holding a pen in his mouth and a notebook in his hand, though, so maybe it’d be deserving.

And hey, we wouldn’t get foul ball bingo if an adult didn’t try to convince another adult they deserved the baseball more than any kid. Good on you, Buster, for ignoring his advances.
