this catch. over and over. It will be forever known in Lower Columbia College baseball lore as “The Catch.” Derrick Salberg’s leaping catch over the left field bullpen fence with a runner on and two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning robbed Everett as the Red Devils held on for a 4-2 victory in the first round of the NWAACC Baseball Championships at David Story Field on Friday. “By far the best catch I’ve ever made,” Salberg said of a play that ended up No. 1 on SportsCenter’s countdown of the top 10 plays of the day Friday night. “I was waiting for the bullpen pitchers to tell me I was getting close to the fence. Thank God I didn’t run into the fence, and I’ve got some hops.” - Rick McCorkle, The Daily News Read the rest: “Red Devils snag a win on a catch for the ages” Watch video of the catch here photo by Bill Wagner/ The Daily News
