[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 531941, member: 20605"] If he had put his hand out, and attempted to catch the ball, then lost it forward in an attempt to regather, that would be different, and I would agree with you. However, I don't think you could construe that what Kearney did was attempting to catch the ball. To me, it looked very much as though he "batted" the ball, and that is a deliberate attempt to propel it. The ball bounced off him (rather than him having temporary possession and then losing it) and went so far forward that he was unable to grasp it. [/QUOTE]
