Ryan Wold nearly had history within his grasp.

Instead it grazed off his fingertips.

Wold was on hand Thursday for the Dodgers-Miami Marlins game at LoanDepot Park, where L.A. superstar Shohei Ohtani became the first MLB player to reach the milestones of 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases in a season.

Perhaps you’ve seen Wold in video footage of Ohtani’s 50th home run of the season. He’s the guy in the Marlins tank top who had two chances at snagging the historic ball before it sailed off to make someone else a very happy, and possibly rich, man.
