00:00Bruce Roberts is taking in his first Yankee game tonight, is that correct Bruce?
00:04That is correct Justin, stoked to be here.
00:06And you make the catch for the ages, catching George Lombard Jr.'s first ever home run.
00:10I did, I'm super excited about it, I was excited to see him play his first game, I knew that
00:15was happening.
00:16I just bought my first Yankees hat like 10 minutes before he hit it and I caught it with a
00:20hat.
00:21What made you take your hat off and try and make the catch with a hat?
00:24Well it was a last minute decision, I saw it was coming close and I wanted to reach up high,
00:29I didn't really want to catch with my bare hands, so I just grabbed my hat really quick.
00:32The Yankees came and asked for the ball back, you gave it to them correctly?
00:36I did, yeah.
00:38Did they offer you anything?
00:39They did, yeah, they were really generous about it actually, they said it was a big deal,
00:43it was his first homer, he'd really like to have it back, so of course I was going to give
00:46it to him.
00:46But in exchange they offered for me and my family to meet him and get some autographed balls in exchange.
