Today I received something that made me pretty happy. A while ago I sent out a bunch of debut tickets and got a few back right away but have not received one in a while. Today I received a ticket stub from Brian Simmons’ Major League debut (09.21.1998). He signed it with ML Debut and included a cool note. Since his debut was at the Metrodome, he mentioned that he loved playing in the Metrodome as he first got to play there in college as part of the Michican team in the Hormel Classic. Pretty fun and neat return!

Goin’ To Austin
I was recently looking at the SCN trade list and came across a 2019 Tyler Austin Gypsy Queen card listed. I messaged Ken W who had it available and was excited to see he needed an extra Jared Burton card I got signed at Twinsfest years ago. We made an good, old fashioned trade! Today I received the Austin card and am excited to mark it off my need list!
Marsh(mellow)
Today I received a baseball from umpire Randy Marsh. I sent Randy a baseball and asked him to write about what he remembered from the Twins 2009 Game #163. He wrote that he “Couldn’t hear a thing in the Dome!” That’s pretty cool because I was at that game. It was my most exciting game I have seen in person!
My Cousin Vinnie!
Today I received my items from Vinnie M (vinniemiller on SCN) that he got signed in spring training. Vinnie does an awesome job for me at Spring Training as well as during the regular season.
