When I was a kid, Red Sox pitcher Luis Tiant was warming up at the Oakland Coliseum on the sidelines...when he finished and was walking back to the dugout, I called out :"Hey Luis...toss the ball". He had his warmup jacket on, hiding his name on his jersey--he may have been surprised a little kid knew him, in Oakland. He walked over and handed me the ball.
That simple gesture given to an unknown kid, made me a fan of Luis' for life. I followed him the rest of his career.
I'm sure the kid in the video will never forget this day--or the players act of kindness.
