I'm sick of MLB players who treat the fans like they dont exist

Not this guy, Hyun-Jin Ryu for the Dodgers is a good guy apparently. He played catch with this young fan during BP. This is why I like this game.



And then there's Matt Kemp who had heard via the Dodgers 3rd base coach that there was a fan who had about 90 days to live and was a huge fan. Following the game in San Fran where the Dodgers were swept, Matt Kemp stopped by the fan, shook his hand, signed a gameball for him, took off his cap and gave it to him, then took his game jersey off and gave it to the kid, next came the shoes, and he shook his hand again and headed for the locker room.
