In 2008 Denard Span joined the Twins in Chicago and got his first hit.

Standing at first base Span was approached by Paul Konerko.

"Was that your first major league hit?", he asked.

"Yeah", says Span.

Konerko shook Span's hand and said, "I'm sure it's the first of many. Congratulations".

 

Telling the story later Span said, "Wow. Paul Konerko!"

 

Konerko is a classy guy. How he wound up on the White Sox is unclear, but I'm sure it's not his fault.

"Heckling" opposing players should be reserved for the classless *******s who flock to Yankee Stadium and that dump Fenway. I know this article is in jest, but listening to some drunken idiot "heckle" a ball player (who could care less) is annoying about 999 times out of 1,000. The only gems are when someone gets the occasional awesome and random dig.
