I found a guy long ago who had some unsigned, hand painted, VERY limited numbered Wild Horse Cachets envelopes available. I grabbed any that had the Twins on them. I saw where Tom O (orr23mj on SCN) was having a private signing with Rod Carew so I sent in the cachet of Rod. I requested blue ink instead of a typical Sharpie so it would stand out against the bright paint. I received it today and it turned out great!
That’s A Ticket!
I don’t recall ever sending in for a player to sign something via a team for their charity in the past. I have wanted to but never got around to it. I decided to see if I could get one of my debut tickets for Kris Bryant signed so I sent a ticket to the Rockies to their charity and today I was met with a tremendous success! It was signed beautifully with a nice fat (in this case it worked great!) blue Sharpie. What an awesome item to add to the collection!
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 Looong Time Comin’
Back on November 5, 2018 I sent a full ticket from Game 3 of the 1987 ALCS to Pat Sheridan along with a nice letter and donation. After I did not hear back after a couple months I gave up on it. Imagine my surprise when I grabbed the mail out of the mailbox today, 2,426 days later, and saw a long envelope SASE in the pile! I quickly opened it and out fell the ticket, signed, along with another signed card he threw in with it. This has to be the longest return I ever received!
