The Twins had a season ticket holder event today where we could get Griffin Jax and Matt Wallner’s autographs. So, my brother and I headed down to the ballpark with our items and pens!
I ended up getting a Jax OMLB and two Matt Wallner cards, both 2025 Topps, #547 and #688. All turned out great and both guys were cool. It was a fun event and I cannot wait to see who is there for the August session!

A Dozen Prospects!
If you follow this page at all, you will find that I get a lot of baseballs from Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN). In fact, just a couple weeks ago I attended a Nationals game with Chris and his wife. Today I received a dozen of the balls he got signed up for me. He does a fantastic job getting them for me all along the DC/Baltimore area. Today’s box contained the following beautifully signed baseballs:
Kyle Stowers
Agustin Ramirez
Jordan Beck
Hunter Goodman
Termarr Johnson
Cole Henry
Daylen Lile
Luke Dickerson
Bryce Meccage
Jesus Made
Welbyn Francisca
Bryce Cunningham
I am really excited to add these to my collection and follow as they become superstars!
A Major League Minnesotan
Today was super cool. While on vacation, I attended the Washington Nationals game. What made it cooler was the I attended with Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) and his wife. Chris and I did some ‘graphing before the game by the Marlins dugout. I was hoping for fellow Minnesotan Max Meyer but he did not come out of the dugout before the game. Connor Norby, however, did. I got Connor to sign a baseball for me. It was pretty fun to see Chris in action and to get Connor on a ball. I should be getting a box of signed baseballs from Chris soon as he has been getting a bunch of balls signed for me all season so far! It was really fantastic to attend the game and meet Chris. He is a cool dude!
Twins and a HOFer!
I love mail on Mondays! There is usually extra mail that arrives due to the mail moving on the weekend. Today I received a pair of packages. The first was from Pat Gillick who signed my 2011 Baseball Hall of Fame yearbook. The second was from Mike E who lives in Iowa and was able to get me a bunch of Twins stuff signed when the St Paul Saints played the Iowa Cubs. Mike got me:
