Foul Ball Girl vs Jerry Jones' Son-in-Law

I can't really decide which video has more to say about it.  On the one hand, the foul ball video is made by the announcers, so its got that going for it, but on the other, that's Jerry Jones' son-in-law wiping off his glasses for him.  How does that relationship work?

You decide which is better.

That Just Happened

Classic baseball in the beer trick, seen it a million times before. But the addition of the bank off the forehead was a really nice touch, job well done.

What a Grab!

Now there are going to be some people who freak out saying this guy is irresponsible, trying to go for a baseball while holding a baby. That just makes it that much more impressive, and nothing else. Best part is the baby has no idea what's going on, completely unfazed by the ordeal.

The Answers: How Old is Too Old to Wear a Glove to a Baseball Game?

At Fenway Park, gates open smack in the middle of pre-game batting practice.  Fans rush in and line the right field corner and center field bleachers hoping to get a home run, usually from the away team, guilt-free.

Now everyone knows, a batted ball, even 380 feet out in right field, has some steam behind it, and catching one can be difficult, even if you're squared up and ready.  But the question we're looking at today:  At what age is bringing a glove to the game considered ridiculous?

This is another question that may have several factors, but still only one clear answer.  Where you are sitting makes a huge difference.  For instance, if you're behind home plate behind the screen and you have a glove, you might as well go home.  If you're sitting two seats behind Pesky's Pole, I'll allow it... to a certain extent.

What it really comes down to is, at what age are you considered a man?  According to Jewish tradition, that age is 13.  At 14, I attended a Catholic all-male high school where the motto was "Be a Man."  I'll go ahead and attribute that motto directly to catching a baseball sans glove.  If you really need a glove to pull off the catch, then I hope you're a 12 year old boy otherwise, that's just embarrassing, man.

A few things considered, some omitted, but I believe the final answer is clear: If you're in high school, NO gloves at the games, gentlemen. The combination of man without a glove and boy with a glove is allowable, but only if you're making insane catches like the one in the video above.
