Against the Pittsburgh Pirates on September 22, 2007, playing right field as a defensive replacement, Fuld raced back and made a "spectacular", "daredevil", catch just left of the 368-foot-marker in right-center field at Wrigley Field, slamming into the ivy-covered brick wall and robbing the Pirates' Nyjer Morgan of extra bases. Fuld then bounced off the bricks and threw the ball to first base, doubling off a Pirates baserunner ("see" video of Fuld catch and throw to first). "That was amazing", said Fuld. "They were going crazy." General Manager Jim Hendry said: "That's as good a play as I've seen by a Cubs player at Wrigley Field since I've been here." The play later made ESPN on "Baseball Tonight" as the # 1 web gem of the day. After the season, Paul Sullivan of the "Chicago Tribune" cited it as the Cubs' "Play of the Year." Many Cub fans refer to it as: "The Catch."
