Cubs fan misses catching homer, loses shirt in anger

MLB.com

Catching a home run is something every baseball fan dreams of doing. Catching one in the famous bleachers of Wrigley Field would give you a story to tell your grandchildren.

This poor Chicago Cubs fan has a story to tell his grandchildren, all right. It's about that time on a sunny Friday afternoon in Wrigley's bleachers when he completely missed snagging David Ross' three-run homer, then responded by taking his shirt off and unleashing a massive cry of anger towards the baseball Gods.

While he muffed the home-run catch, perhaps the poor fellow will take solace in the fact his Cubs pounded the Pirates 9-4 to earn their league-leading 26th win.
