Perez scales wall for stupendous catch
Perez robs home run 0:52 8/19/15: Juan Perez scales the wall in center and reaches up to rob Stephen Piscotty of a solo home run in the bottom of the 1stST. LOUIS -- Giants center fielder Juan Perez even fooled the fans at Busch Stadium with a highlight-reel catch in the bottom of the first against the Cardinals on Wednesday.
Perez climbed the wall and reached well into the shrubbery separating the fence from the seats to glove a Stephen Piscotty drive that seemed destined to give the Cardinals an early lead.
As many in the stands cheered what they thought was Piscotty's second big league homer, Perez calmly pulled the ball out of his glove for out No. 2 in the bottom of the first.
