PHOENIX (AP) -- Cameron Wright caught one homer at the Diamondbacks game and immediately threw it back. No way was he giving up the second one. Not on his mother's 50th birthday.
Sitting in the upper-level seats in the left-center-field bleachers at Chase Field on Saturday night, Wright caught a two-run home run by the Dodgers' Yasiel Puig in the third inning.
Two innings later, in the bottom of the fifth, he came up with a solo shot by the Diamondbacks' Chris Owings.
Wright, a Scottsdale resident, caught Puig's homer on the fly and threw it back onto the field immediately.
"When we sat here, I knew this was a pretty good area for a home run to come," Wright said. "I told myself that if a Dodger hits it, especially Puig, that I was immediately going to throw it back. When it was coming in the air, I was ready for it. No hesitation and (I) went for it."
There was no hesitation when he came up with Owings' homer, either.
That one came on a carom off the seats, and Wright gave his fiancee a little nudge so he get it.
"It was a few seats down for me, and I was trying to get in front of my fiancee to make sure she wouldn't get hit and kind of elbowed her in the process," he said. "It went off the railing and stopped right in front of my feet, so I picked it up and gave it to mom."
