I have done a few now.

I"ve had a few on the infield and one in the OF. It is definitely hit and miss though.

I find jumping to be harder though and haven't got one of those yet. There really isn't a camera angle that allows us a close enough view of the OFer to time and gauge the OF wall jump attempts.

I made a few shoestring catches, rolling to the ground afterward - which is pretty cool. As for dives I always seem to mistime them..ball gets pass me then I dive

I've made a few myself on grounders and fly balls to the outfield

I've made a few sliding stops at 2B.

I have made a few diving stops at 2nd and thrown out the runner. But not on the fly.

I made a grab at the wall, that was pretty sweet. It didn't rob a homerun but I did stop a double.

Re: Has anyone made a diving catch this year?

Same as a couple of others, I've not made any diving catches in the outfield or infield (line drives), however I'd made diving stops at each base of grounders. More frequently though is that I'll make a diving attempt at short or 2nd and basically slide/roll over the ball, almost as if the ball was within reach and diving wasn't necessary.
