Catching fly balls his life mission at Wrigley Field
Gary Mullin, a 31 year old Cubs fan known as a ball hawk, catches dozens of balls including five home runs in a season. He auditors his total 971 career Cubs Park catches and adheres to a code of giving hard hit balls to the injured. New Cub ownership bans catching balls from non seated or non sold areas on catwalks, leading Mullin to defy the rule and be escorted from the stands and jailed briefly for disorderly conduct before filing assault charges. Management may bar him from the ballpark if he persists.
