Arods 3000th hit

[danesei@yahoo.com]

Hard to blame a guy for turning down maybe $5k worth of stuff for a $100k+ ball.

I don't imagine the ball fetching $100k anytime soon. Yes, it was a HR and 3000th hit, but $100k seems extreme, even if he's only the third player to do the 3000th hit for a HR thing. After all, Gwynn's 3000th hit game batting gloves and cap were offered at a measly $5k.
