Historic Baseballs and their First Possessors in the News
So David Ortiz just hit his 500th home run, not a record but a great milestone. The fan who caught the ball was recently praised in a Tweet by Gordon Edes, a baseball writer who covers the Red Sox:
"The fan who returned David Ortiz's 500th HR ball impressed Sox and Ortiz.by making no extravagant demands. A few photos, souvenirs, is all."
By the way, here is a humorous revision of Take Me Out To The Ball Game"

Dick Flavin’s “Red Sox Rhymes” gives us one gem after another. Here’s one:
“Take me out to the ballgame.
First, let’s stop at the bank.
I’ll need a mortgage so I can pay.
Parking the car is another outlay.
And you can pay big bucks for a hot dog,
The cost of beer is insane.
For it’s Oh my! Prices high
At the old ballgame.”

Doubleheader Next Wednesday Sept. 2
Hannah Duncan Arizona Pom Line 8-29-14 ESPN
We will have a double class next Wednesday Sept. 2. Class will begin at 12:10 PM and run until 2 PM in Room 113 (our normal room). I am also paying back the 10 minutes I owe you.
We will watch a documentary on Popov v. Hayashi (casebook p. 113) and then discuss the actual decision in the case.
This is the Barry Bonds 73rd home run ball case. The documentary is fantastic. Very funny and very informative about the law and litigation.
Update: We will account for this double class by cancelling class this Friday Sept. 4.
