Dammit, now due to your ambiguous typo I can't decided if it hit you in the head or the hand...

EDIT: Crap I just realized maybe it hit your DAD

So a couple of typos...Yes hit MY HAND and rolled below me and over a couple seats. And I didn't take pics or write the date down, but it was the "1980's". May have been a 15 run deficit the dodger came back from, but we left in the 4th inning, like usual. Get hammered and leave early just like Dennis Martinez No Hitter. Left in the 6th.

AND YES, I would do the same thing today to get the ball. Another time, a Mark McGwire homer hit me in the hand, missed it again, and I dove after it. Hit the ball and it flew away.

I tore my shoulder and left bleeding. LOL. Was not the same for 10 years Does that help?

If you caught the ball (or retrieved it) and don’t ever plan to sell it then why be concerned with “proof”. Print out a pic of the screenshot you showed in the thread. Keep the ticket stub if you have it and print out the box score or cut it out of a Boston newspaper. That’s what I’d do

If you do decide to get it signed, please don't use a Sharpie. Ballpoint all the way. My vote would be to get it signed, although it drives me nuts when players sign jerseys or bats. Balls simply look good when they are signed, and jerseys and bats don't. At least that's my opinion — I'm sure others would disagree.
