Did anyone else see this. I'm still trying to figure out what was going through Alomar's head? Did he think they were giving it to him?

Too funny

Looks like all's well that ends well.

How funny is the story that was printed regarding Roberto Alomar today! Let me say that Roberto did see the YouTube video, and immediately reached out via e-mail to the young man that owns the T-shirt. Not only will "Kanji" receive his shirt back, but he will also be receiving a few additional items in a personal package directly from Roberto.

Hey, let's face it... Your T-shirt will now be a part historic baseball video footage for life! The parade was awesome. And during the parade, Robbie was given several items by fans...including flags, shirts and banners. You helped honor the Blue Jays during the parade, and Robbie was very proud to represent the team with it...even if it was by mistake!

You will get it back, my friend. Trust me, Robbie has enough Blue Jays shirts! Thank you for continuing to support Roberto Alomar!

Ha! I guess that's that. I figured it was a mistake. Still is it customary to receive gifts from fans in parades like these? I can't recall ever hearing about something like this before.
