rachel T he ruined my opportunity to be the batboy for San Francisco's AA farm team in San Jose. I was 12, and won the contest just months after. I was disqualified due to the age minimum. Stupid Dusty Baker needed to keep his grandkids under control, or off the field if he can't manage a team at the same time.
My take on kids and foul balls is this, if you win the ball fair and square, keep it. If you're in a generous mood, maybe you do give the ball to a kid. But don't give in and give them the ball because they're pouting. Kids who guilt adults like that will grow up to be gigantic douches in all likely hood.
