A Twinning Day!

Today I received a couple packages of Twins autographed items.  The first was my baseball I sent to Cory Provus to write his call about Joe Mauer’s first walk off home run.  I took some extra time on my letter to him and he graciously signed the ball and wrote a note thanking me for the nice note.
The other package was from TheChad (Chad L on SCN) who finished up some items for me with the Twins in Rochester.  Chad got the following items signed for me:
Byung-Ho Park ML Debut ticket
Jose Berrios ML Debut ticket with “ML Debut”
Byung-Ho Park 2016 Topps Update US65
Kyle Gibson 2015 Topps Heritage 246
Both packages made me really excited to have the items added to my collection!

Two Players and a Bear

Cami and I went to the Twins game today.  As is the Twins Sunday tradition, two players sign autographs for kids.  We got to the ballpark and Cami got in line.  She got Tyler Duffey to sign his 2017 Topps card and Drew Rucinski to sign her team ball.  Later in the game, it was announced that TC was signing autographs in the Digital Clubhouse so she took her TC card that we got walking into the ballpark and got him to sign it.  It was a fun day at the ballpark until the 9th inning when the Red Sox scored 10 and buried the Twins.
