Keisha White is a freshman at West High School in Utah, and she just did more with her sports career than you probably ever will.
In a state tournament game in Utah, the outfielder tracked down a long fly ball, jumped over and through a wall that appears to be made of the same material of that stuff that hangs over beds to keep bugs out, and made an insane catch to prevent a home run.
According to Business Insider, the No. 1 site on the Internet for high-school softball highlights, this is ruled an out because: “Since White was still technically on the field-side of the fence when she caught the ball, it was ruled a good catch.”
I don’t know. She seems to be well beyond the wall and in mid-air when she catches the ball. If this were the NFL, Keisha would have been ruled out of bounds and probably fined for some unknown reason. But I think if you are able to climb a wall of any size, run into the stands and make a catch, that should always be an out anyway.
Anyway, West won this game 11-8 but lost in the championship game later in the day on a walk-off home run. We are still working to confirm the rumor that Skip Bayless blamed the walk-off homer on Keisha because, “If you can dive into the stands once, you can dive in again. Tim Tebow would have caught that.”
