000th hit may hear from the IRS,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Christian Lopez probably owes taxes on this photo,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], too.

For every feel-good moment,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there is an equal and opposite reaction. Newton said that . you could look it up. Or,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you could just observe the case of Christian Lopez.
Lopez is the New York Yankees fan who caught the home run that was Derek Jeter 3,000th hit Saturday. He could have held the ball for a ransom and not a lot of people would have blamed him. Instead,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he gave it to Jeter,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], asking only for a couple of baseballs and bats in return. The Yankees responded with season tickets, merchandise and a meeting with Jeter.
Enter the only people who could possibly make the Yankees look like the good guys: the Internal Revenue Service. Lopez is going to have to pay some taxes on these gifts. That how it works with these things. (You know, death and taxes.)
According to the New York Times, it uncertain just how much the items are worth,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but four tickets to the 32 remaining home games (after Sunday) have a combined face value of $44,800 to $73,600. Steven Bandini, a tax partner at the accounting firm Zapken Loeb,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], told the Times that if the items were valued modestly at $50,000,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they would probably carry a tax burden of about $14,000. Lopez also received three bats, three balls and two jerseys,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], all signed by Jeter. (Total value of those estimated at $6,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],500.)
That a steep tax bill for a cellphone salesman who has six-figure college loans to pay off,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
comes to worse,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I'll have to pay the taxes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he told the New York Daily News on Monday. not going to return the seats. I have a lot of family and friends who will help me out if need be.
IRS has a job to do, so I'm not going to hold it against them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but it would be cool if they helped me out a little on this. what? It would be even cooler if Derek Jeter helped him out a little on this.
