Maybe they're too poor to do the obvious:

Get a bunch of $100 bills, buy some tickets to MLB games (with seats at various suitable locations), pay $100 for each foul ball that a fan is willing to surrender.

I think the average kid, or adult for that matter, when given the choice of keeping a foul ball hit by some mediocre batter, or exchanging it for a crisp new Benjamin, would gladly do the trade. I certainly would, but perhaps I'm not rabid enough of a "fan".
