Today I received the first of two packages from Chris R (rifon on SCN) who held private signings with Gary Gaetti and Jim “Kitty” Kaat. I have gotten Kaat a number of times over the years but did not realize until recently that I did not have him on my 1965 Twins team baseball. I included that baseball and now have 21 players from the 1965 Twins post season roster on it. I also sent in a 5″x7″ postcard from 1965 and Jim signed that real nice. I found a fairly beat up ticket from Game 1 of the 1987 ALCS and sent that in for Gary to sign. He signed it with “2 HR’s” and “1987 ALCS MVP” as I requested.
I realized after I mailed this in that I had some other tickets for Gary to sign so I sent those in separately and should receive those soon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
