Today I received a card I bought from Shawn J (shawnmjacklitch on SCN) that he got signed by Anthony Swarzak. After Anthony left the Twins, he ended up pitching in Korea and then came back and signed with the Yankees. The 2015 Topps #128 completes my run of Swarzak cards I need for my sets. Thanks Shawn!

A Trio Of World Champions
A week or so ago I saw where Dan Gladden, Scott Leius, and Gene Larkin were going to be at the Mall of America signing autographs today. I asked Cami and Caden if they wanted to go and Cami said she did so we planned on going.
We got there and waited anxiously to start.
The first person we encountered in the line was Dan Gladden. Cami had Dan sign a photo of the collision at home plate from the 1991 World Series.
He asked if he could personalize it and Cami said sure. He wrote a pretty cool inscription. She was on Cloud Nine.
Next up was Scott Leius and then Gene Larkin. Cami got a card signed by each.
I got Gladden to sign a large photo of Randy Bush’s slide home from the 1987 World Series. I got Leius and Larkin to sign the team celebration World Series Sports Illustrated from 1991 where they were both pictured.
It was a fun time. Later on we went to the Twins game and Cami got Carson Fulmer to sign a card for her!
A Sonny Day
Today I received a Sports Illustrated magazine that Sonny Jackson signed for me. He even returned my marker and donation! The SI is from 06.06.1966 and was already signed by Joe Morgan. I was a little nervous about sending it since it was already signed by one person on the cover and is really a great looking issue but Sonny did not disappoint! Thanks Sonny!
Nothing To Breg About
Today I received a pair of boxes in the mail that contained beautifully signed baseballs in them. The first package was from the MLBPA. This box contained a pair of baseballs that were signed by Alex Bregman and the other Alex Reyes. They look great.
The other box was from MLB.com and had a baseball signed by Michael Fulmer. I think all three of these players are going to have a real bright future.
