An Indians fan spotted Mike Napoli on his flight and basically became his best friend
For at least a few hours on Thursday, the Party at Napoli's took place thousands of feet in the air.
The free-agent slugger was on a flight to Nashville, a fact that didn't elude the individual sitting in the row behind him:

In fact, this was more than just an, "Oh, look, one of the game's premier power hitters is on my flight!" moment. No, this story has a great ending:

If only every flight came with the added bonus of meeting one of your heroes ...
