My favorite part of Joe Posnanski's "Soul of Baseball" is when Buck O'Neil refuses to boo a man for not giving a freshly caught foul ball to a nearby child.

"Don't be so hard on him,"  the late baseball legend famously tells Joe. "He might have a kid of his own at home."

It was an incredibly astute observation and one that I've often used as a reminder that there's probably always more to the story that we can't see.

Of course, sometimes you can see the whole story and it turns out to be just as complicated. Such was the case at Citi Field on Sunday when a grown man named Mike Terry saw New York Mets star David Wright(notes) throwing a ball into the stands and instinctively leaned over the railing to catch the offering for his 3-year-old son, Mackey.
