Reply to "Gary Matthews Jr-7/1/2006 (Greatest Catch Ever!)"

Does anyone remember Carl Yastrzemski's catch against the Yankees in 1967? I believe Tom Tresh or Elston Howard hit it. Billy Rohr was making his first major league start and was flirting with a no-hitter in maybe the 7th inning. Yaz (playing LF) just turned tail and ran full speed away from the plate dove at the last second and made an over the shoulder catch that I consider one of the best I've ever seen. I never hear anyone talk about that one when they talk about great catches. I was ten years old and still remember Ken Coleman's great call "...and he dives and makes A TREMENDOUS CATCH!"
