My grandfather had a saying that when something did not go right, he would say “Oh balls”. Whether it was working in the yard or garden or playing cards or whatever. Today was a day worth saying “Oh balls” but not for something not going right! Today I received two packages and each contained a pair of baseballs! The first box had a pair of Oakland A’s signed baseballs. I noticed on Twitter that A’s Authentics posted that they just got in some Jesus Luzardo signed baseballs. Jesus is going to be a big time pitcher real soon so I thought I would purchase that one. And, why stop at one? So I added a Matt Chapman baseball to my order. Both arrived today. My other package was from Drew Coble. You may have noticed a couple posts recently regarding Drew and his wife Cindy. I originally wrote to Drew asking him to do a story ball on the 1987 ALCS pickoff of Darrell Evans but later found out the boxscores were all wrong and it was Joe Brinkman who was manning third base that game. After going back and forth via email with Cindy, I ended up sending a pair of baseballs to Drew to do storys on the 1991 World Series pick off play of Ron Gant at first base and also on George Brett’s Pine Tar Game, both of which he was involved in. I got them today and am really excited about them. They also included a cool 1987 Twins pennant and a pair of signed postcards and Drew included a nice note. I appreciate all the effort Drew, and especially Cindy, did in helping me acquire these baseballs.
