I have received a large number of items over the years that Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) has gotten players to sign for me but this might be one of the biggest. Chris got field passes for the Royals at Nationals at the end of the season and was able to wrangle Bobby Witt Jr to sign my debut ticket. This turned out amazing and it a beautiful addition to my ticket collection. Bobby had one of the top months of offensive output this season and will continue to get even better. He will be one of the finalists for AL MVP probably losing out to Aaron Judge but he will get his chance soon enough. Chris also included a Dylan Crews debut ticket he got signed for me a few days prior to the Witt.
Pretty awesome package! Thanks for everything this season, Chris! Can’t wait until next year!
A Serving Trey
Todd B (moselder71 on SCN) had a signing with Trey Mancini recently and was able to get my debut ticket signed. Trey signed it with “MLB Debut”. It looks great!
Sir Rodney!
Tom Orr (orr23mj on SCN) has had numerous signings with Rod Carew over the years. He had a private signing lined up for February, 2024 but Rod’s health was not that great so it was delayed. Seeing Rod in Cooperstown made me understand first hand why. Rod was feeling better and Tom met with him and got my two cards signed and I received them today. At this point I think I have everything signed by Rod I have unsigned for my collection. That is until a new Twins card is released. The cards I got signed are:
2022 Allen & Ginter #145
2022 Topps Andy Friedman #32
As always with Tom, they are signed perfectly.
A Quadfecta
In what is probably the final package of the season (unless he hits a couple more this last week), Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) hooked me up with a pair of baseballs and a pair of cards for the collection.
The baseballs are signed by:
Ethan Anderson
Vance Honeycutt
The cards are:
Gio Urshela 2022 Topps#US130
Carlos Correa 2024 Topps #155
It has been a fantastic season of items Chris got me for my collection. There could be one more biggie. Stay tuned!
