Something similar happened to me at an American Legion game when I was 21. Took my glove to catch foul balls. One goes up, high foul ball, first base line near the fence. I ran through the dug out onto the field, lowered my shoulder to move the first baseman, he went down, I tripped over him but made the catch as I fell.
I stood up, raised my glove with the ball over my head expecting cheers but no, name calling and swear words were yelled. I couldn’t believe it…how could they not be impressed by such an acrobatic catch? Whatever…the umpire did not need to tell me twice to leave. Screw those people.
