Today I received a package of baseball from Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN). Chris is moving and these were some baseballs from his collection that he was selling because he was moving to a smaller place. He was kind enough to give me first shot at these. I do not know where Chris gets his baseballs to get signed but the quality is really better than what I get. All the baseballs are so smooth and the ink sits on them really nice. These baseballs are absolutely beautiful and are awesome additions to my collection. Today’s package included:
Kyle Tucker
Triston McKenzie
Francisco Mejia
Blake Rutherford
Isan Diaz
Avisail Garcia
Kenta Maeda
JT Realmuto
Man, Chris does an amazing job! Thanks brother!

Major League Hunter
Today I received a pair of packages of items for the collection. You may remember that I got a 5″x7″ Major League card signed by Charlie Sheen when he was in town and bought a Chelcie Ross one. Today I got a pair from the set that Chris R (rifon on SCN) got signed at a recent signing event for Tom Berenger and Corbin Bernsen. That leaves just two cards I need to finish the set. Unfortunately once has passed away. I will work on finding that one!
The other package had a 2015 Allen & Ginter #195 Torii Hunter card that Zachary C (clarkzac on SCN) got at the Twins Hall of Fame breakfast event. I am excited to knock that one off the need list.
Rookies and a Hamilton
Today I received a pair of packages. One was from Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) and contained a pair of high prospect signed baseballs. One was signed by Victor Robles and the other Eloy Jimenez. They are beautiful!
The other package was from Tom Hamilton. Tom is the Indians broadcaster and I had sent him a call ball request for Francisco Lindor’s first career walk off home run but he just signed his name. He did return the donation so I guess that was cool.
Bang The Drummond
Today I received a pair of cards I bought from Scott V (Cooptown on SCN). They are the 1991 Topps and 1991 Donruss cards of former Twin Tim Drummond. Strangely enough this was the final card I needed to complete my 1991 Topps Twins team set. Both are signed beautifully in blue Sharpie. Thanks Scott!
