Yes. I’d throw it back then go to Obvious Shirts to commission “Threw Back Ohtani’s #2” and become a Bleacher Celebrity. The Dodgers suck. Full stop. Their sucking as an org has nothing to do with our customs and courtesies. You catch a visiting team HR, you throw it back. If you don’t, you deserve to be next to Ronnie Woo Woo for the next 4 homestands.
Sure wish I had Kris Bryant’s first home run ball, especially if he would’ve continued to perform the way he did in 2016.
Let’s compare Shohei to Babe now, do you wish you had Babes first HR ball as a Yankee?
The conversation is about Ohtani's 1st home run, AS A DODGER, not simply his 1st home run. Although more specifically, the conversation here is actually about his 2ND home run. If you're a Dodger's fan, then I fully understand why you'd wanna keep the ball, but not as a Cubs fan
That’s why I compared to Ruth he was traded from the Sox to the Yankees. Which is why I asked if you’d want Ruth’s first homer as a Yankee 😂😂
It’s the same significance in the long run. You need to think big picture not small. And you specifically said “I don’t understand how his first would matter.” Which is what I replied too.
Why are you bringing up his second?

Somehow this single comment sums up about 80% of what I love about being a Cubs fan
You sir, sir win the internet today.
I thought folks brought a baseball with them, then threw back the fake while keeping the real hr ball?
I think a lot of those people got those balls during BP rather than bringing them in.
Dont fuck with tradition.
You 100% throw it back. Is his second home run as a Dodger significant in some way?
I don't understand how his 1st would matter
It wouldn’t matter to me, but some people would care about his first homer as a Dodger.

2nd home run was the topic of the thread. But okay, I get your point, but I'm not planning on living another 90 years
I don't understand this question, at all. Short of a record breaking home run ball, why would you want it?
The Doyers can go fuck, my love!
That comma is doing a lot of heavy lifting…
Bring a ringer in your pocket and throw that back instead
You bring a baseball from home. If you catch the ball, do the ol' switch a roo and Viola you keep the real one.
No way. If it's Chris Taylor, sure.
You do whatever you want. It's your ball, you can take it home.
