The baseball:chapter 13

the top ten lists and other things of interests



This chapter is basicly a list with details the first list is of the top 7 most known "Ballhawks". my two favortie "Ballhawks" are Moe Mullins and Rich Buhrke, mostly becuase the both go to wrigly feild to catch the balls but also becuase have a ball of cubs history. Mullins, born on October 11, 1950 in Lima, Ohio, and is a truck driver. He has snagged 5,441 baseballs from over 13 diffrent stadiums. Also Mullins caught Sammy Sosas 62nd home run ball, 1998, the year he broke the record for most home runs in a single season. My second favorite, Rich Buhrke, was bron on June 22, 1946 in Chicago Illinoise, and is a security guard. Buhrke has snagged 3,476 balls. Allthough Buhrke didnt catch as many balls as Mullins, Buhrke has the history. He caught Jay Johnstone's 100th Career home run, Bill Melton's 100th, Ron santo's 300th, and 5 game winning grand slams.




His next list is a list of the ten best stadiums to snagg a ball at:



1.) Camden Yards, home to the Baltimore Oriales



2.)Kauffman Stadium, home to the Kansas City Royals



3.)At&T Park, home to the San Fransisco Giants



4.) Rangers Ballpark, home to the Texas Rangers



5.) Progressive Field, home to the Cleveland Indians



6.) Turner Field, home to the Atlanta Braves



7.) Miller Park, home to the Milwaukee Brewers



8.)Petco Park, home to the San Diego Padres



9.) Chase Field, home to the Arizona Diamondbacks
