A millionaire has to look out for himself

Boston's firstbaseman Doug Mienkiewicz won't give back the baseball that he caught to make the final out of the World Series. He is calling the ball his "retirement plan" saying, "I know this ball has a lot of sentimental value.... But I can be bought. I'm thinking, there's four years at Florida State for one of my kids at least."

Batting just .238, Doug Mienkiewicz made $2.8 million dollars last year.
