Should player Doug Mientkiewicz get to keep the ball that won the World Series for the Boston Red Sox?

Lawyer: Mientkiewicz last in line for rights to controversial ball BOSTON -- Doug Mientkiewicz, call a lawyer. You're going to need one if you want to keep the baseball you caught for the final out of the World Series. The Red Sox first baseman is storing the ball that clinched Boston's first title since 1918 in a safe deposit box near his Florida home. But the Red Sox want it back so they can show it off, and legal scholars say the team has a good case if it wants to fight Mientkiewicz in court. 'What appears to be emerging as a legal consensus is that the person with the least rights to it is Mientkiewicz himself,' said Yale Law School Dean Harold Hongju Koh.
