Giancarlo Stanton hit his 300th career home run on Thursday night in the bottom of the third inning of the Tigers' 8-7 win over the Yankees, making him the fifth fastest to reach the milestone.
A lucky fan caught the home run, and he gave the ball back -- but not after a few unique requests.
Tim Kunz, a California native, made negotiations to surrender the ball to Yankees security and receive a meet-and-greet with Stanton, some signed baseballs, tickets to a future game, a tour of the clubhouse and field and ... two Bud Lights.
I mean, you develop a thirst catching important homers.
The negotiations lasted a couple of innings, but it appeared everyone will be going home happy -- including Stanton, who had the ball in his locker once the game ended.
