A long while ago a great friend of mine gave me, and continues to give me, his ticket stubs from baseball games he attends. In the group of tickets there was a run of the three games the Twins played in St Louis in the 1987 World Series (that the Twins WON!). I had Game 4 and Game 5 signed but not Game 3. It was a glaring hole in the seven game set of signed tickets. I was looking over Past Pros website and found that John Tudor signed via their process and knew I had to send the ticket to him. Today I received it signed by John with “Winning Pitcher” on it. I am excited to say that I now have all seven tickets of the 1987 World Series signed by a player who played an important or meaningful role in the game! The post office did beat the ticket up a little when it appears to have gotten jammed in the sorting machines but it is fine for me and my collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
