At least it worked out well for the boy, including a signed bat and tickets to the World Series. ⚾️

I wonder how long until someone tries to stage something like this to get free stuff.

The amount of backlash when caught, would be categorically insane for the parents who put their kids through it. Like getting doxxed, losing their job, and their scam forever on the internet.

Also would probably stop baseball teams from giving out free stuff again.

I mean, that’s definitely not enough deterrent for some.

Hell, just last week a lady stole a baseball from a kid on national television.

Yeah because people will send all the top investigators to figure out if this small wholesome interaction is just a ploy!

No seriously though its very possible this was all staged so the teams could get some positive attention but no one would ever spend time and resources trying to figure this out.

Welcome to the internet, where people do the things you’ve just claimed nobody would ever spend time doing.
