Today I received a baseball of what some might say is a baseball pioneer. In mid-November, 2020, Kim Ng was hired by the Florida Marlins to become the first female general manager in baseball history. I sent her a baseball via the team requesting her autograph and inscription of “1st MLB Female GM” and she did not disappoint.
The other package I received was a pair of items from a private signing that Jake R (Kowbyz8 on SCN) had with Randy Arozarena. I got a baseball and debut ticket (with ML Debut inscription) both JSA’d signed at the event.

Who’s Your Vladdy?
Today I received something that has been out a while. Last season I missed sending in a debut ticket from Vladimir Guerrero’s Major League debut to a signing. I heard the promoter (Jamie B- jamieblye on SCN) was going to have another signing with him at some point during the off season. I think because of COVID it was delayed until the start of Spring Training. It showed up signed with just his name. I had paid for an inscription but it turned out he was only signing his name this time so I received a refund on the inscription fee. I now have a signed debut ticket from both Vladimir Guerrero Sr and Jr!
A Furcaligistic Package
Today I received a pair of Sports Illustrated magazines signed by Rafael Furcal. The issues I sent to the signing was the 11.07.2011 issue that had Rafael and Albert Pujols hugging after winning the World Series. Now I have to send one in to a Pujols signing! PastPros held the signing event a week and a half or so ago. They turned out great!
Pat Mahomes!
No, not THAT Pat Mahomes. THAT Pat Mahome’s father Pat. A year or so (?) my pal Jeff D from the Seattle area gave me a bunch of Mariners tickets from all the games he went to and saved. I got a couple signed and today I added another. On April 21, 1992 Pat Mahomes got his first Major League win and Jeff was there! IBExclusives and PastPros recently had a signing with Mahomes and I sent in the ticket and received it today. They got Pat to sign it with “1st ML Win”. It looks great!
