A fan made a solid catch and fortunately no one was injured (though he did have to fight off other fans trying to secure a souvenir.)

Whatever flies in the stands at a baseball game immediately becomes the property of the person who caught it - as it should be in every sport, looking at you NFL - but Cabrera indicated that he wanted the bat back, and the fan agreed to a deal.
