One of the phrases that I feel is overused by announcers is "robbed of a home run". Just because somebody makes a catch leaping in to the wall doesn't mean it would have been a home run. However, robbed of a home run is an understatement in the following video.
The catch was made by Masato Akamatsu of the Hiroshima Carp.

Former Silver Hawks Pitcher Released
I recieved an email from the Arizona Diamondbacks yesterday saying that Tony Barnette has been released. However, this isn't necessarily as bad as it sounds. Barnette is being released so he can continue his playing career in Japan.
We are working on contacting Barnette in a "Catching Up With" feature. Hopefully, we'll have something from him soon.
