This Rockies broadcaster successfully reels in a foul ball without leaving her seat

During the Rockies' 8-2 win over the Red Sox at Fenway Park on Thursday night, broadcaster Jenny Cavnar was sitting on the third-base side just past the visitor's dugout when a foul ball came skipping toward her in the fourth inning. Staying cool in a moment of pressure, she came up with the ball without ever leaving her seat, brandishing it proudly above her head.
