World's largest game of catch

On Sunday, September 4, 2016, we went to the Pawtucket Red Sox game. While the PawSox won the game, it was a relatively dull 1-0 game. The only run scored on a failed pickoff attempt in the first inning that went to centerfield and allowed the runner to race home from 2nd base! Justin Haley starred for the PawSox. He struck out seven and only walked one. He carried a no-hitter into the eighth inning, but lost it when a ball hit his leg and rolled behind the mound too far for him to throw out the runner at first.

After the game, we attempted to set a world record for the world's largest game of catch. The previous record had been 1,058 set in Cincinnati. We ended up with 1,133 people!
