Indians bullpen holds milestone HR ball ransom, demands giant drum of lube

Well, that’s an odd thing to ask for.

Cleveland's Brandon Moss hit the 100th home run of his career Tuesday night, which is a pretty neat accomplishment and maybe a collectible he'd like to save. Fortunately for Moss, his teammates in the bullpen recovered the ball. Unfortunately for Moss, they are holding it ransom.

Apple product, Apple product, Apple product, 50 gallons drum of lube, Apple product ... wait what?! That would be Marc Rzepczynski demanding either an Apple Watch or 50 gallons of his favorite lubricant. It turns out acquiring said giant drum of lube isn't even a challenge. For the low price of $1,176 Moss can order a 55-gallon drum on Amazon.com. It even comes with free shipping! A low price to pay for a career keepsake.
