Carolina League
Wilmington Blue Rocks
Inside (B) You can get autographs down by the dugouts but you have to move when the season ticket holders come for their box seats.

Outside (B-) You can stand by the doors leading to the visitors bus or where the home team parks. Theres no security outside but it is dark! There are only parking lot lights and they dont light up much. You have to have a good eye for the players because there is never anyone else out there to help you spot a guy.

Overall (B)


Independent League
Lancaster Barnstormers
Inside (A) Players sign from the dugout all the way down the line. They even have a table set up near the top of the steps where the concessions are where a select few sit at a table and sign autographs before the game.

Outside (A+) There's no security and you can stand in the home teams player parking lot. The visitors bus is about 20 feet away from the home teams parking lot so you can easily run back and forth to get the guys you need. Great lighting for both places. While you are waiting for the home team players, there is a chain link fence that allows you to look inside where the players are walking out. You can see who the players are way before they come to the door.

Overall (A)

Eastern League
Reading Phillies
Inside (A+) It doesn't get any easier then this. The players have to walk through the crowd and down the side of the stands. If you dont know who a guy is, just check his number then check your roster sheet and then run around him along the wooden sawhorses that are set up and wait for him. You really can't mess up here.

Outside (A) They let you stand right outside the locker room door inside the stadium. Theres tons of light and always plenty of people getting autographs to help you figure out who a player is. After awhile the security has to leave so they move everyone outside the doors. Its darker outside but the players have to walk through you to get to their cars or the visitors bus.

Overall (A)
