Great story about this guy. I was at the Cubs/Rays game yesterday. During BP my girlfriend nearly got hit with a foul ball; it was a pop fly and she didn't see it in the sun and it was coming down right on her head. I noticed it at the last second and put my arm over her head and it bounced off my wrist and three rows back. Kiermaier came over to us and made sure we were both okay and we had a nice minute or two conversation with him. It was just us chatting while others were asking him for a ball and auto, instead he just talked with his. As he ran back to field BP, he ended up flipping me a ball. New favorite player.
