I don't think I'd ask for anything. Honestly, as corny as it sounds, if I made someone's day that would be good enough for me.

I'd ask for bat and to take bp with the team tomorrow.

Haha. Now THAT might be a little too much.

 

I think two bats are fine. I'd probably just have asked for a signed ball and to meet Chris.

 

Now, if it was that Griffey 600, I'd ask for more stuff and to meet Griffey. I hate it when people ask for money.

Well I have some first hand experience because I caught Hanley's first grandslam on opening day.

 

Security came over to me and took my ball and attempted me eject me from the game, because I jumped over the railing in left field to recover the ball.

 

After hours of arguing with security, I got Hanley to sign the ball, however i never met him, some guy walked into the club house, got it signed, and walked back out.

 

I was never in the position of making demands of any sort

Lol, you sure they didn't trick you? ARE YOU SURE YOU GOT THE GRANDSLAM BALL??

Well they said he didn't sign the grandslam ball, but they got me a brand-new ball with Hanley's signature on it.

 

Good enough for me, i was gonna give him the ball anyway

There is a reaaaaaally good chance it's not the same ball.

 

edit: Yep, confirmed. You got jipped, man!

You were sitting less than 20 feet from me... and I want you to know I hate you for recovering it... I wanted it

Fine, then I just want to take bp.

If I caught a HR and the team wanted the ball back I would say "whats it worth to you?" and go from there...

what would you ask in return?

That dumbo that Craig interviewed made me make this thread.

 

 

I would probably ask from a picture with the players and maybe an autographed bat. I would never sell the autographed bat because I would want to keep it for memories.

I would not be a pest about it like that guy was.

 

He's one of those "professional" ball jerk offs like Zack Hample, who I watched push a kid out of the way at Dolphin Stadium for a foul ball in 2008.

:lol ... foul ball. That is worth a lot of money. That happened to me once at Dolphins Stadium. I was like... if you want it, just take it. It's not like the ball is made of gold.

 

If you see this 30+ year old going after a ball, expect an elbow and push. He's infamous for it. That's why he's caught over 3,000 balls.

Don't worry, I usually bring 3 balls. As many as I can get signed, and If theres one left over. It gets thrown back as a dupe to spite the other team. This guy might get a duplicate tossed in while he's biting tooth and nail for a ball. I'd love a chance to knock him over a railing.

If I caught a mets players HR, I would attach a bomb to it and throw it into the mets dugout

is this guy who go to all ballpark looking for balls??

 

bi-curious?

For somthing like tonight, probably autographed pictures and a game-used bat. For a record breaking HR ball... a f*** ton of money.

If it was a highly touted prospect's first HR ball I would keep it for a while under the assumption that if they are power hitters and many years down the line achieve great HR milestones then the value of the ball I caught would rocket up since it was their 1st and a nice profit could be made.
