Anaheim Angels all-star Howie Kendrick has apologized for making an eight-year-old boy cry, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

“If I have offended anyone I apologize. I definitely appreciate all the kind comments from you guys good and bad,” Howie tweeted Wednesday evening.

“All this will serve to make me a better person and player.”

As RadarOnline.com was first to report, Howie moved into an Orange County neighborhood for the duration of his season with the Angels and on the day he was moving out, an eight-year-old boy living just two doors down stopped by Howie’s house with a baseball card and asked his favorite player to sign it.

Anaheim Angels all-star Howie Kendrick refused to sign a baseball card for an eight-year-old boy and made him cry, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

According to an Orange County woman, Kendrick moved into her neighborhood for the duration of the Angels season and last month her son asked him for an autograph and was denied, leaving him in tears.

“Howie and his family had been living next door all season and we had been respectful and had not bothered him or his family until the morning he was packing to move,” the woman, who wishes to remain anonymous to protect her family told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.
