For the past couple years, Joshua S (jslaw on SCN) has attended the Yankees Spring Luncheon autograph event that the team holds to raise money for Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Tampa. This year was no exception. This year Joshua was able to get me the following items:

Alex Rodriguez 3000th Hit ticket with “3,000 Hits”
Mark Teixeira Cycle ticket with “Cycle”

As always, Joshua did a fantastic job with my items. I am really excited about the 3000th hit ticket A Rod signed! Thanks always Joshua!
