It's official: if you're a young fan attending a San Francisco Giants game and you want a baseball, all you have to do is cry and pout.
Last month a young boy in the stands made Giants commentators feel bad after a foul ball was grabbed by a fan in front of him, so they pulled some strings to get him a baseball. In last night's game, a young girl in the front row started crying when her sibling got a baseball and she didn't, so a Giants representative handed her a baseball.

I know, I know, if you give something to one of your kids, you have to give something to the other one...you have to treat them equal and all that, but come on. What would have happened if a kid a few seats down started crying after seeing the girl get handed a baseball? Would the Giants have to give that kid a baseball? Where does it stop?
The line has to be drawn somewhere. If the Giants are going to continue to give a baseball to every crying kid in the front few rows, they may as well hand out baseballs to every kid under 10 that comes to the game.
