July 23, 200916 yr Here is his appreciation thread. Catch of the fricken' year. Edited July 23, 200916 yr by Buehrle>Wood
July 23, 200916 yr i listend on my mlb at bat at from first pitch and came home in the 6th to watch it. didn't want to post till it was over one way or another
July 23, 200916 yr Nothing will ever top Konerko's slam for me. But I've never gotten as loud/hype as I did after Wise made that catch.
July 23, 200916 yr QUOTE (Linnwood @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 03:15 PM) I will never talk s*** about Wise ever again. Noone should. He cemented the 25 team with that play alone.
July 23, 200916 yr QUOTE (wsgdf_2 @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 03:15 PM) LOL! I haven't seen the catch yet - but this thread had to be made! Turn to ESPN ASAP. It was a great catch under normal circumstances. Add in it literally saved a perfect game AND no-hitter, and it's one of the best catches I've ever seen.
July 23, 200916 yr Dewayne Wise never has deserved all the crap he gets for his glove, maybe now it will stop for awhile. Unbelievable!
July 23, 200916 yr As I said in the game thread. BA would've had it, but who cares. Wise got it, still did a hell of a job, and that shouldn't be taken away because we all know Quentin on his bum foot and Pods would not have gotten it. Nor would have Dye. Incredible catch.
July 23, 200916 yr As soon as there's a public video available somewhere (for those of us at work), can someone post a link?

Thanks though!
July 23, 200916 yr That catch was something special in a game that means nothing. In a game like today, it is a play of the year.
July 23, 200916 yr I am lucky enough to have been home to watch the game on TV, by my girlfriend had to watch via GameDay on MLB.com. She texted me say that the perfect game had been broken up, because they had marked that as a home run. ROBBED!
July 23, 200916 yr QUOTE (Linnwood @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 03:15 PM) I will never talk s*** about Wise ever again.
July 23, 200916 yr Wow, just wow. I thisnk Wise is an awful baseball player, but damn that was the most incredible catch I've ever seen!
July 23, 200916 yr I can't believe he made this catch the same day my authentic Wise jersey got delivered!?!
July 23, 200916 yr QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 03:34 PM) I can't believe he made this catch the same day my authentic Wise jersey got delivered!?!
July 23, 200916 yr I'm not trying to open a can of worms, but I find it REALLY funny; if Wise had dropped that ball EVERYONE on this site would have been calling for his head and Ozzie's and demanding to being BA back, lol.
July 23, 200916 yr I don't know if BA woulda GOTTEN to that ball. Wise went a loooooooong way and BA isn't as fast. BUt, you know what...? WHO GIVES A s***?!?! MARK BUEHRLE GOT A PERFECT GAME!!!
July 23, 200916 yr QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 03:40 PM) I'm not trying to open a can of worms, but I find it REALLY funny; if Wise had dropped that ball EVERYONE on this site would have been calling for his head and Ozzie's and demanding to being BA back, lol. Yeah. Either Wise is a the hero or the goat. No gray area in between. Lucky for him, tonight he is the hero.
July 23, 200916 yr BA doesnt get that ball cuz he is right handed...Wise if a lefty and gets to that ball
July 23, 200916 yr QUOTE (Karko's Throat Skin @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 03:40 PM) Seriously...Anderson would have caught that without falling ... but he didn't... because he's in AAA. In the post game Ozzie said "We keep him for a reason". Right there.
