TORONTO A Cambridge man has the Jose Bautista home run ball that some say was heard around the world. And he wants to give it back.

Jeff Byma, a longtime Blue Jays fan and baseball player, says the three-run home run ball hit by Bautista ended up in his hands after bouncing off a second tier wall at the Rogers Centre during the wildly electric Game 5 that saw the Jays win the American Division League Series in Toronto against the Texas Rangers on Wednesday.

In a Twitter post, an elated Byma stated "This is your homerun ball @JoeyBats19. Would love to get it back to you... or signed."

The Twitter account features a photo of what appears to be Byma, surrounded by a group of friends and cheering fans, holding the post-season homerun ball in the air in jubilation.

Also posted was a photo of the coveted post-season ball encased in a glass box accompanied by the text, "Waiting to hear from @JoeyBats19".

Although the Times hasn't yet been able to speak with Byma, the Cambridge resident's mother, Linda, confirmed her son has the game-changing home run ball.

"He was absolutely thrilled," she said, noting her son called home shortly after the game to share the news.

She told the Times she and Byma's father had been watching the game on television and were celebrating Bautista's homer. Although they watched the commotion that ensued in the stands after the homer un, they had no idea their son ended up with the ball in his hands.

It was a stroke of luck, she said.

"He didn't have to fight for it or anything."

The Times has placed contacted media officials with the Blue Jays organization for comment, but not yet received a response.
