Here's why I question this:
First off, the ballgirl charges into the corner to catch the ball. This wouldn't happen during a game. Ballgirls (and boys) just pick up ground balls that go foul and throw them in the crowd. They never shag flies, because a fielder might have a shot at getting an out, and they especially wouldn't run this far to do it. She is running like she was shot of a cannon to the exact spot where the ball was headed, and she comes a long way to do it. Jim Edmonds never tracked a ball this well.
Secondly, she never looks for the ball. She runs to the corner, climbs the wall like a cat, and sticks her glove up to catch the ball.
All that aside, even if this is a fake, it's a good one, and I'm sure she's a better outfielder than Chris Duncan in any case.
