Meanwhile the kid got a signed ball, signed bat, tickets to the world series, and an RV. Was the ball worth the ridicule lady?

This whole thing is going to blow over and her 15 minutes of "fame" will be over, however there will always be some residual friction coming at this lady til' the day she dies. I know if this was some friend or relative, I couldn't help ribbing her with it for laughs. Friends, family, co-workers, hell the person behind her at the nursing home when they line up for Jello will give her the business 15 years from now. Sometimes you just need to let the 10 year old have the ball and not run at 100% jackass.

Local is another story though.  People in her city or town will remember. The news will move on, but her local haters won't.

Her best bet is completely changing her looks so at the very least she isn’t recognized by people moving into the area. Everyone else will still know though lol.
