When Harrison Bader arrived in the visiting clubhouse at Tropicana Field this past Sunday morning, he did so with some important cargo in a plastic bag.

Inside were two bottles of Silver Oak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, each of them with an additional note above the label written in a silver marker — one to commemorate Ian Hamilton’s first MLB save and the other to congratulate Jake Bauers on his first home run as a Yankee.

Bader walked across the room, and left the bottle for Hamilton in his locker. He then delivered the other to Bauers, who was already sitting at his stall.

“Just a little gesture, nothing big,” Bader said later that morning.
