Content description:
This is a photographic negative of a baseball catcher making a play on a foul ball. The catcher is attempting to catch the popped up ball near the stands. One step away from the wall the catcher has glove out to catch the ball. The play is very close to the dugout making a couple of the players to duck and get out of the way. The shot was taken from the left side of the catcher toward home plate including the dugout.
