June 11, 201511 yr THAT WAS VERY COOL!! Ben Zobrist didn't have to do this, but he GETS IT. I'm a Zobrist fan now!
June 11, 201511 yr Very cool indeed. I love when professional sports players "get it" and give back to the fans.
June 11, 201511 yr Author I thought it was cool for two reasons. Obviously, seeing Zobrist take a minute to respond to the kid was cool. However, I was touched by the kid's passion for his team. As I age I lose that passion for most teams I root for. It's good to see a kid loving not only his team but the game.
