nice wall climb and grab

I wish Carp games were easier to watch online, only one of the two Japanese leagues really streams online

I found the crowd reaction interesting. Polite clapping for the most part. Not what I'm used to in The States.

That was the most bizarre catch I ever saw. I watched it 10 times but the camera work was not all that good. Too far away with a quick cut in the middle of the play. I would think a camera happy country would have a few more angles for the viewers.

You need to post a wink after that to make sure its sarcasm.

Nice catch and all , but the wall is so short I am not overly impressed, if it had been an MLB stadium and he could do that, now that would be impressive!! Are all japanese fields like that, short wall in outfield?
