Independent Baseball Team Signs Jose Canseco, Will Commemorate His Blasted Finger With Foam Finger Giveaway

It appears that the saga of the blasted Jose Canseco finger has one more chapter in it, as the Sonoma Stompers, an independent baseball team, have signed the former MLB slugger to a two-day contract that will commence on June 12. Canseco's time with the team is apparently being dubbed, "Jose Canseco Weekend."

According to the Stompers' press release, Canseco "will play a range of positions and even attempt to play all nine," just like the great Will Ferrell. Original.

However, the real fun with this publicity stunt lies with the promotion the Stompers are holding, which makes light of Jose's infamous self-inflicted gun wound from this past October:

And a little less than a year since Canseco lost his middle left finger in an infamous firearm accident, the first 250 fans who arrive at the ballpark both nights will receive a Jose Canseco Foam Hand. The foam hand, like Canseco himself, will be missing a portion of its middle finger.

A closer look at the foam fingers:

If you’re in Sonoma for that weekend, take a break from the wine tasting and grab yourself a one-of-a-kind memento.
