Foul balls

During a recent visit to Yankee stadium, Dylan got a little upset that WE didn't catch a foul ball. I tried to explain to him how rare it was, but it was unconvinced. Now I see that someone has calculated a rough estimate that for the average MLB fan there is about a 1 in 1000 chance of catching a foul ball. Wow. No wonder we only got the foam hand, cotton candy, authentic scorecard and program, Carvel baseball cap cups, road jersey, souvenir cup, signed photo of Jose Rios with authenticating hologram, miniature wooden bat, and the Drumstick.com "lite version" of Joe Torre's Virtual Baseball Academy.
