Rickey only thinks Rickey deserves attention from Rickey

If Henderson gives it to the kid, the kid still hasn't caught a foul ball. Somebody giving you a foul ball isn't the same as catching it. And it's also different because it has been in a real game. A batting practice ball isn't the same. Rickey wasn't rude to the kid and even signed a baseball. Part of me kind of likes the fact that Rickey thinks it's cool to catch a foul ball.

 

Would Ricky give it to John Olerud?

Olerud/Ricky/helmet story is one of my favorite stories of all time.
