It was probably a subconscious omission, to be honest, due to what followed. My son-in-law asked me to get some autographs for my 8 month old grandson, and let me tell you, I NEVER DO THIS, EVER.

An hour or so after my chance encounter with Tommy's dad, my wife spots him at the bar with a lady and young man with a beard and longish hair. Thinking that Mr. White and I are now fiends, I grab the baseball and head to the bar. I proceed to ask Tommy White for an autograph, and the young man was quite rude and even made fun of me.

He actually said "I'm not Tommy White, and chuckled as he said to Mr. White that this is the 2nd time in the last hour he was mistaken for Tommy."

Needless to say, Little Man's baseball is completely free of any markings, and it will stay that way.

dthev25 - you gave me a great idea. I will publish a post based entirely on fan interaction in Omaha. It is truly special to be part of it all.
