Yes, in his case, apparently two for every home run he hit.

Rizzo handed the ball over to the owner today at the parade, so wonder no more.

Good to hear. I can't see how a particular player would have ownership over something like that anyway? I would think it would, and rightfully so, belong to whoever purchased the ball for use in the game. Either way, it's good to see it go to a place where hopefully the team and fans will get to appreciate it for years to come.

It doesn't apply here because the ball stayed on the field, but Barry Bonds' record setting home run set off a lot of legal analysis.

I don't know the answer but by the looks of that document it wasn't a cheap legal case(s)....The more writing the more billable hours, right?

How about selling the ball to the highest corporate sponsor (say $15 million) with the condition that: (1) the money goes to local childrens'
charities and (2) it must be publicly displayed into perpetuity. That's a sponsorship I could approve.

Talk about an idle sidebar to a good topic, but I can't help but wonder who pays for the baseballs in a WS game? Does the home team provide and then vice versa when the teams switch? Does each respective league share the cost? Or does MLB pick up the whole ticket? These are the issues that keep me awake at night.

I wondered that as well. If the home team purchases the ball and the ball stays in the field of play then, hypothetical, do they retain ownership? In other words, maybe Rizzo should have given in back to the owner of the Indians.

If the ball is in the stadium, but it is in the persons pocket who owns it? I can go to a store, put something in my pocket but not leave the store with it. That does not mean it is mine and I own it.

It has not left the stadium, but I would think that technically one could argue that it was stolen. It was never that person's ball to put in their pocket and leave with, regardless of the sense of ownership.

But what about all the foul balls that fans take home?

Lawyers could have a lot of fun arguing this question.
