New guy in Philly area
Found this site doing a search looking for current Carlos Carrasco 8x10's to get autographed. My son (9 years old) and I make it to the (Reading and Philly) Phillies, Trenton Thunder and Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs. We are looking to travel a little further (Harrisburg, Scranton, etc.). Anyway - I picked up a bunch of great 8x10s from FutureStarPhotos.com before we went on vacation in Charleston, SC. We got 9 out of 10 signed at the River Dogs came on 7/7 including a couple Jesus Montero's. Jason Stephens who we had a picture of and was listed on the website the day of the game was no longer on the team which made for a funny situation because there is a new #27, Stephen Artz. My son's calling for Jason and when the guy came over he was laughing because it wasn't him. He signed a program for him anyway. Highlight for my son was gettign a pair of batting gloves from Brandon Laird whiel we were there. What was also interesting is that none of these guys had seen the pictures before. One of the Montero pictures we have is the same one that's on the cover of the latest issue of Baseball America.

I still have more poking around to do and am mainly looking for help getting materials (pictures/cards) to get signed. Who knows, maybe we can help somebody out in return for some of those materials!

Glenside - couple miles from the north end of Broad St.

Looks like there's mroe than a couple folks from Philly here. Any tips on getting access to the Phillies other than shows and the crowd next to the dugout before the games? Parking lot before or after?

And thanks to all for the welcomes. My 9-year-old was looking over my shoulder as I was reading and he's writing letters today and pulling some of his cards to try the "TTM" route. I'm assuming you use a hard plastic sleeve for the card and just include a SASE. Anything I'm missing?

Thanks again! KenJ
