Nice gesture by Dice-K

On Sunday, the Red Sox players threw out some baseballs to fans to commemorate their 600th straight sellout. Daisuke Matsuzaka made sure that the fans in the cheap, well, less expensive seats felt some love:

Every Sox player was given a small bucket of commemorative balls to toss to fans before the game. Daisuke Matsuzaka seemed to take particular glee in trying to reach the seats farthest away.

Dice-K has taken much criticism, a lot of it deserved, but it's nice to see a player remember the folks who sit in the types of seats Christine and I sit in. {Any bets on when he goes on the DL from straining his arm by making those throws?}

Tonight's games: The Phillies trail the Cardinals 8-4 in the 8th. The Red Sox play later in Oakland. Dice-K starts. I hope he doesn't give the A's fans any souvenirs.
