It all happened so quickly for Ambar Roman. A lifelong Los Angeles Dodgers fan, she watched as her husband dived to the ground with others in search of Shohei Ohtani¡¯s home run ball at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday night.

Then Roman looked down, near her feet, and there it was. She picked up the ball, Ohtani¡¯s milestone first homer with the Dodgers, and pumped her fist.

¡°Sitting in the pavilion, you always hope that you¡¯ll be able to catch a ball,¡± Roman said last week. ¡°But never in a million years would I have thought it would have been his ball.¡±
