An usher for the Boston Red Sox takes unbelievable MLB foul ball catch
THERE’s a new contender for catch of the year in America after a stadium employee blew minds with a freak 15 seconds of fame.
MLB
Don't miss out on the headlines from MLB. Followed categories will be added to My News.
THE Boston Red Sox are having such a good year, even their ground staff are pulling off miracle plays.
In the second inning of a dour affair between the Boston Red Sox and Toronto Blue Jays, an usher pulled off a moment to snatch all the headlines.
Standing in the upper deck, an usher was watching the match when a foul ball came his way.
What happened next was the most nonchalant catch of all time.
You might not see a better catch all season than this absurdly casual one-handed catch from a Fenway Park usher. WATCH:https://t.co/gT3D1ileFn pic.twitter.com/tNR5euP5l7

The usher barely moved a muscle and took the ball insanely cleanly for his one-handed speccie.
Then to top it off, the usher showed he was a great guy, throwing the ball to a young family with a kid in the seats above where he was standing.
Social media went crazy for the relaxed grab.
Get that man a contract! https://t.co/0Kzl7drYaW

A Fenway park usher made the boys on both teams look bad with his ridiculously casual one-handed catch of a foul ball in the upper deck at America's oldest ballpark during the top of the second inning Wednesday night https://t.co/guND2HjXX6

That usher made a sweet, sweet catch. He doesn’t just walk to your seat, he gets you up out of it. ... I voted for Kevin Hart.

The moment was arguably the play of the night in a 1-0 win to the Red Sox, the team’s 100th win of the season, capping off a huge week for Boston after the side were the first team to clinch a post-season berth in the MLB this season.
The catch will go down as one of the fan catches of the season, including catches like Gabby DiMarco’s beer catch and the dad who caught a home run while holding his baby.
