No.2 is the better of the two in my humble opinion. That man hovering behind the backstop does not contribute anything to the pic and  cloning/cropping him out is a great improvement. I appreciate the difficulties of photographing sports and your timing was spot on but I would have liked to see a little more space above and below the subject.

When you have to sit behind home plate about halfway up and halfway from dugout to home plate on small professional grandstand for softball and have wind moving netting best place to be. Also still learn how get person right in photo too. Since netting moves i keep where do not to much open space. Since want camera stay focus on person. If do not have person center in photo like that netting will get in away. Also live near inlet of river and about 10 to 20 miles from ocean get large brezzs
