The woman was hoping to get a foul ball for her mother, Donna Morey, who was at the game, celebrating her 80th birthday.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, getting anyone on the field to toss you a foul ball is a charm offensive that heavily favors the young. Jameson knew the odds of an 80-year-old getting a ball were slim to none. So, he walked over to her, treasure in hand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was so shocked,&#8221; Morey told CBS News. &#8220;I just didn&#8217;t know what to say. It was unbelievable to me. It really was. And I said, &#8216;Why are you giving it to me?'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I thought, she is way older, and she can&#8217;t come to many more games, and I can go to more, and get many more balls,&#8221; Jameson said. <\/p>\n<p>Donna accepted his gift.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It symbolizes goodness in this world,&#8221; Donna said. <\/p>\n<p>And Jameson says he is so glad she did, because he&#8217;s actually happier without it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will leave feeling really good about myself,&#8221; Jameson said. &#8220;So does it really matter that I left without a ball?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/steve-hartman\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Steve  Hartman<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Steve Hartman is a CBS News correspondent.
