On Tuesday night, Aaron Judge hit his 62nd pitch into the stands against the Rangers in Texas, becoming the long ball king in American League history.

Not surprisingly, many fans were willing to risk a lot to get their hands on a historic ball valued in the seven figures.

One fan in particular stood out more than others…

Didn’t see it? Look closely on the left, a fan jumps down believing that the ball was going to end up there because of a potential “bounce” somewhere.

The result of this run to this historic ball is this: the fan who caught this ball from Judge ‘s 62 is named Cory Youmans, a vice president of Fisher Investments.

The ball was caught precisely in Section 31, Row 1, Seat Number 3, at Globe Life Field. It was authenticated and autographed, so everything was done by the book.
