Re: G.U. Moment for the Baltimore Orioles
That's interesting based on what you have seen and it's very complicated since there is a request list for each game and the game would have to cooperate to get that ball someone wants as the umpire decides generally what balls come out of play unless it is a historic moment like a 1st hit or 3,000th hit or some other special moment.
Then also consider that the 3rd out balls are usually tossed into the crowd by the last player that touched it.
We've been fortunate to get what I consider to be the ultimate "The Home Run ball" and then next is the Strikeout ball. We already have requests for games that are months away!
On the other hand since the beginning of last season, we still have not received a ball thrown by the Orioles closer Jim Johnson. Still waiting!
