New York Yankees star Aaron Judge's 61st home run ball landed in the bullpen for the Toronto Blue Jays and former minor league pitcher Matt Buschmann to collect. Buschmann, however, handed the ball back. He recently joked that he should have kept the ball after watching his wife Sara Walsh’s interview with Tom Brady.
"Maybe I should’ve hung onto that HR ball…" - Matt Buschmann
Walsh traveled to Germany last weekend to watch the country's first-ever NFL regular-season game, which featured Brady's Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Seattle Seahawks.
After the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Seattle Seahawks 21-16, Walsh was granted an interview with Brady on the field. Brady, 45, was in a buoyant mood and appeared to get along very well with Walsh.
Walsh is an American sportscaster who was employed by ESPN from 2010 to 2017. She joined ESPN from Washington, D.C.'s WUSA, where she worked from 2006 to 2010 as the station's weekend sports anchor and then-Washington Redskins beat reporter.
"Tom Brady beat the Seahawks, but neither of us was a match for Sweet Caroline or this 75,000 person singalong in Munich after the clock hit zero. Germany, you were incredible. #nflmunichgame #gobucs"- Sara Walsh
