SEPTEMBER 02, 2010

Amelia Lamoscatella always brings her glove to Rays games.

She has attended about 450 games, but has only snared one foul ball.

In the eighth inning of the Rays game Wednesday night, a rocket off Ben Zobrist's bat zoomed toward her seat along the first base line near the dugout. She readied for the big catch.

The ball smacked her in the face. Then it bounced back onto the field. Oh, the agony of defeat!

Read the full story and watch video from MLB.
