When I was a kid, I loved baseball & used to think the throw back of a visiting teams homerun was a super cool act of loyalty by hometown fans. Then free agency came along & showed me that there was no real loyalty in baseball & it was all about the players & owners selling a business to customers. Was never really a fan of any team or player after free agency & think a fan might as well keep a hr ball to sell & try to recoup some of the costs of attending a game.

True, it's a big business and all about the money. I'm still a big Detroit Tigers fan, but I don't care what player hits a home run at a game, I'm keeping it!
Yeah, might as well keep or sell! Thanks Stretch!
