Nice catch, mom!
Julie Lisi, 78, found quite the $1.49 bargain at a thrift store in Jupiter, Fla., when she discovered her son Christopher's Little League mitt with his name still written on it. He'd lost it 40 years earlier in Willoughby, Ohio _ 1,000 miles away _ amid the postgame celebration after hitting two home runs in the season-ending game. So she texted him a picture of it, just to be sure.
"He was thrilled, he was jumping up and down," she told The New York Times. "He just said, 'Mom, bring it home.' He plans to pass it on to a grandson someday."
