David Ortiz Home Run Auction

Comment First

Even though I’m in California now, I’m still a big Red Sox fan. When news came out that David Ortiz is auctioning off his 50th home run ball for charity, I was very disappointed that I haven’t made my millions so that I could buy it. It comes with a pre-game ceremony where Mr. Ortiz will present the ball himself.

So what would I do if I won the auction? I would show up at the ceremony, accept the ball, and hand it back to him and thank him for the memories. Wouldn’t that be really classy? I hope the person that wins the auction reads this and considers doing just that.
