MLB fans will score Chia Pets, garden gnomes, selfie sticks and piggy banks this season

Forgive us for going all homer here, only two days away from major league baseball’s Opening Day.

But we declare that the miniature World Series trophies that the first 20,000 fans at the April 23 Royals game will receive is one of the best MLB promotions this season.

The marketing folks of MLB teams get more creative and quirky each season. Dodgers undies on Father’s Day anyone?

Bobbleheads still rule. For instance, the Chicago White Sox, Tampa Bay Rays and Colorado Rockies will all hand out “Star Wars”-inspired bobbleheads.

The Yankees will give away 18,000 Babe Ruth bobbleheads on April 23.
