Phils fans make unreal foul ball catches this season

(Philly.com) "Ian Driben, 38, is a diehard Phillies fan. A graduate of Rutgers University-Camden and the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine, he went to every game of the 2008 World Series, including both parts of the famously suspended Game 5.

Wearing the championship cap he bought at that clincher, he was determined to pay attention to the game as he returned to his seat Thursday, so he tracked the ball all the way - concentrating first to catch it, then not to trip and wind up being a laughingstock on TV.

"I saw the ball coming, and it's one of those moments and you know where if I don't catch this, it's going to be twice as bad as it's going to be good if I do catch it. If that makes grammatical sense," he said.

The crowd cheered, then gave him a standing ovation after the inning, when a replay was shown on the big screen."

Four months earlier David Cohen risked life and limb to catch this gem.

For a city known for its fans puking on 11 year old girls, cheering Michael Irvin's career ending injury, we've got some talent in the foul ball catching department... so we got that goin for us.  At least the seats are filled.
