I understand that Boston is a third rate city but even so they have a customer service desk where they give buttons and stuff to kids who come for their first visit etc. Ask them for next time. Congrats on the pick up.. always cool to bring home a ball used in a game.

Thanks for the advice! I have been so busy attending championship parades the past 20 years I never had the chance to learn this.

My season ticket package is in a prime spot for HR balls so it may come in handy to know for another time - such as late October....
