Pujols is making 172K per game, and they offered this guy some signed bats and balls. I don't blame him for not taking it. And then MLB had to be assholes and not authenticate the ball.

If he wants to give it away, good for him, but I hope he isn't doing it because social media or media pressure. He has every right to sell it if he wants.

It's not like it was some kid's first HR or hit. In this case the fan shouldn't feel bad at all.

I'd probably have been a sucker and given it to Pujols. But once you've got that thing back home and had two days to think it over, I'm selling it. 20k is nothing to sneeze at.

It isn't like Pujols can't afford to buy it if he wants it.

Pujols said after the game he wouldn't try to buy it and that the fan could keep it as keepsake to remember going to the game.

And they gave him the bases from the game. How much room have you got on your mantel?
