Wanted man in California,
Wanted man in Buffalo
Wanted man in Kansas City,
Wanted man in Ohio
—Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan, "Wanted Man"
The man that caught Adam Dunn's fortieth home run ball and was interviewed on TV because of that feat, was evidently a man wanted by the police. He identified himself as "Dave Smith" (maybe he's an Astros fan) but police who were watching the game and helping themselves to doughnuts, no doubt, recognized him as a wanted man.
Now, given his ingenious "Dave Smith" ruse, this man is clearly a crafty underworld figure who will allude the authorities for years (like the soccer game stripper in that Nike ad).
