Today I received a baseball signed by Gary Thorne. He was kind enough to write his call on a baseball of the 2001 World Series Game 5 home run by Scott Brosius that tied the game. At the time it was an important home run as it tied the game in the bottom of the 9th inning. The Yankees ended up winning the game in the 12 inning but Arizona got the last laugh as they won Game 7.

A Fairly Nice Return
Today I received a Sports Illustrated magazine from 09.02.1963 signed beautifully by Ron Fairly. He signed it with his typical “Best Wishes”. It looks great and was a real nice issue I had in the collection for a while. He even returned my donation! Thanks Ron!
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!
“Back It Goes! It’s Gone!”
Today I received a baseball signed by Cory Provus which he wrote his call of Max Kepler’s first home run (which happened to be his first career HR). This is the second walk off call ball I have in my collection from Mr Provus. He graciously signed his Kennys Vargas call from last season for me too. I love the walk off home run moments and appreciate Cory taking the time to write them on my baseball.
