At the Ballpark:  The first 7,500 kids receive a Brian Wilson road jersey on Sunday afternoon.  If this was a Phillies game, every kid would receive a replica jersey.  I've noticed that most teams limit their give-aways to the first 10,000 fans, or the first 7,500 fans and so on.  The Phillies don't limit their give-aways.  If you come to the game, and you're a kid, you get the give-away.
