this looks fake to me...
The balls speed doesn't seem consistent and it's trajectory seems a little odd, especially as the camera moves

The video itself is slowed down
just as the ball gets near the crowd. It did seem to have a very flat trajectory as it came off the bat though. Could be legit though, I don't want to become one of those people that thinks everything nice or cool is fake these days.

Me neither but it's so hard to tell these days with all this 'trick photography' stuff :(

Real
Looks real to me, slowed down but real. Reactions are what one would expect, and would be hard to fake.

yes because faking a ball catch,
is so much harder than say, an alien ship or big blue aliens on a distant planet.......

Looks like...
it's someone filming the big screen/jumbotron thing or whatever they're called to me. Could explain why it looks a little... unnatural. I'm going to assume this is real until someone breaks out some actual science to prove it isn't.

well this person onthe comments said
" naw it wasnt fake, i was actaully at that game that was the most exciting thing that happened. since the home team was getting raped 12 to 1 "
so it must be true
while everyone else seems to b arguing about the relative merits of doing it with a kid in the other hand
