Who needs a glove?


Jorge Posada, Yankees catcher, made one of the coolest plays I've seen in recent memory. Not necessarily the best mind you, but most unique.

During the July 10 Angels/Yankees game, Chone Figgins popped a ball almost straight up, and then lost his balance, inadvertently bumping into Posada and pulling his glove off with him. Miraculously, Posada managed to hang in there on the play and actually make the catch barehanded.

Above is a picture of Posada (correctly) arguing that the play should have been ruled batter's interference, and here is the video of the catch.
