We were at that game. During batting practice some of the fans and Dodger players were taunting each other as often happens. At one point Kemp tossed a ball to Rayce. Most other Dodger players would only toss balls on occasion to a fan in Dodger gear. Some even teased tossing a ball to a Giants fan and then didn't. Rayce was clearly decked out in Giants Orange. Kemp would actually wave or speak to people who called his name. Rayce then passed it forward and gave the ball to a little kid that was next to him. The kid was jumping for joy. We commented that we couldn't bring ourselves to boo Kemp after that. Now after seeing this video, I think we actually have to root for Kemp (maybe not when they play the Giants). He seems like a class guy.
