Filthy rich MLB screws the fan again

I wish the story was about the fan that wins the jersey and gives it back to Zimmerman. She seemed like it didn't bother her he kept it but, you still have to award her the item she won. I wonder if in the auction there was a very very very small print in the clause in case something like this happens?

I can't speak for the Washington charity raffle, but I can tell you that the Mets allow fans to pre-order baseballs and bases used in "today's" game.

You may not be able to see it in the photo, but the last bulleted item on the sign is a clause that allows the club "to cancel orders at any time." Which means, I guess, that if you pre-ordered a ball used in "today's" game for $40, but the game turns out to be a no-hitter, you're getting your money back, not a game-used ball.
