Konerko Gives Reinsdorf Last-Out Ball
"Getting this ball from Paul Konerko is the most emotional moment of my life." -- 10.28, White Sox Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf
Mientkiewicz Getting Sox Series Ball Back in January
"First of all he (Foulke) wasn�t going to throw it to me, I�m yelling at him, �throw me the ball!� I want to be on Sports Illustrated too. He threw me the ball and I held on to it. I held onto the one when we won against the Yankees too. Derek had pitched such a good game, he�s gotta have that ball. I gave it to him after all that he had been through, and I was going to give him this one, and I thought, �this is crazy, I�m a baseball buff, it�s something I want to hang on to.� -- 1.7.05, Former Red Sox reserve Doug Mientkiewicz
"I'd have definitely liked to have it (World Series ball) back. When we got back to Boston, I asked him about it and I didn't get it. So that's the end of that. I didn't really think about it at the time. After he caught it, it was like there are other things going through my mind... I didn't get the ball and that's it." -- 2.16.05, Red Sox relief pitcher Keith Foulke
