After denying her request to have Ohtani sign and return the authenticated baseball, Dodger Stadium staff bartered with Roman on the terms of the exchange, eventually giving up two hats signed by Ohtani along with an autographed bat and ball.
"As a Dodger fan, I expected maybe a little bit more warmth, I should say, from them," Roman said. "But it was just really sad I needed to make a decision right then and there."
The invitation comes after the team faced some backlash for how it treated Roman. However, the situation merely highlighted a league-wide lack of protocol for how fans are treated after retrieving milestone home runs.
