So when Yamid comes out he checks to see if anyone was around and sigs and says that if anyone saw him signing during the game he'd get in trouble and get a fine and he goes ya man I need to get paid. Nice guy and a nice story I guess.
What's not nice that you DONT know is that Yamid does not wash his hands after he pisses so you may have gotten more than an auto on that card haha

Pawtucket Pawsox vs. Louisville Bats

Really had nothing else better to do today so headed down to the stadium just to graph pregame. Louisville is really a dead team without Bruce and Bailey only guy I was looking to get for them was Daryl Thompson who is pitching really well this season and is only 22. I was really hoping to get Buchholz on a no hitter 8x10 and despite the small crowd Buchholz pulled into the backlot and walked right in. Nothing special today just worked on some 50/50s, was another ho-hum outing at Pawtucket.

Louisville
Daryl Thompson 1/1

Pawtucket
David Pauley 1/1
Dusty Brown 2/2 (1 for me, 1 50/50)
Rich Sauver 1/1 (50/50): It was his Harrisburg Senators team setter from '87 he is our convo

Me: Mr. Sauver can you sign please
Rich: No (pauses) of course I will I'm just kidding
(Hand him my binder)
Rich: Holy s**t will you look at this f**ker! Oh wait, good no kids around.
Me: Didn't know that was out there huh?
Rich: You're telling me that thing is older than my marriage.

Charlie Zink 3/3 (1 for me, 2 50/50)
George Kottaras 1/2
Sean Danielson 1/2, 1/1 (help, 50/50)
Chris Smith 2/2 (finally got my Portland setters done)
Michael Tejera 1/1
Bryan Pritz 1/1 (team helmet)
Joe Thurston 2/2 (1 me, 1 50/50)
Hunter Jones 2/2 ( 1 me, 1 50/50)

Total 18 (12 for myself)

Pawtucket Pawsox vs. Columbus Clippers

Today was the only day I'd be able to get Columbus and I could only do pregame as I'm working the rest of the time that they are in. Wanted Collin Balester, who was the starting pitcher so I was unsure if I'd get him pregame. Unfortunately for me Columbus came in very late and most of the guys since they were running late didn't sign, so I'm sorry to those I have 50/50s with for this team. Had pretty good outing considering it was just pregame. Here are my totals

All pregame

Columbus
Collin Balester 3/3: Nice guy wish him all the best
Mike Bacsik 1/1: Hey Mr. I gave up #756
Mike O' Connor 3/3 (1 for me, 2 for a 50/50)

Pawtucket
Jed Lowrie 1/1: Did an 8x10 though refused to do the inscription I asked.

George Kottaras 1/1: GU broken bat, signed it nicely. Glad I don't have to lug this thing with me anymore.

David Pauley 4/4 (2 50/50)
Jon Switzer 2/2 (1 50/50)
Eric Hull 2/2 (1 50/50)

Lincoln Holdzkom 2/2, funny story here

Me: Lincoln can you sign please
Lincoln (ignores keeps walking)
Me: Mr. Holdzkom can you sign please
Lincoln (ignores keeps walking to the door)
(Door is locked and he slams on it)
Lincoln: F**k, now I have to sign
Me: Tricky door huh?
Lincoln (as he is signing): F**k'n door

Sean Danielson 1/1 (50/50)
Jose Vaquedano 1/1
Kieth Ginter 2/4 ( 1 50/50)

Total 23

If it takes a locked door for Linc to sign, I don't know what this world is coming to.

Funny thing is he came in with Dusty Brown and Dusty walked in that same door Lincoln couldn't open and everyone else after Holdzkom had no probelms with the door either.

When Pawtucket was in Charlotte Lincoln was very nice about signing for me (I was the only one that wanted him) and he flipped me a ball after the game, after they had just gotten slaughtered. Just my experience with him.

The times I saw Lincoln in AA he was incredibly nice. Really surprised to hear that, how long has he been soured to signing?

Pawtucket Pawsox vs. Columbus Clippers

Really wasn't expecting to go today, as I was supposed to work but got a call in the morning and was told I didn't have to come in, so hit up Pawtucket for a few hours. Just went to finish off my 50/50s for Columbus and did so. This is hands down the nicest team I've dealt with. Wish the rest of the IL could be more like them. Did ok considering it was just pregame for a few hours. Here are the totals

Columbus
Garret Mock 2/2 (1 me, 1 50/50): Was in a great mood as he just got called up to start for the Nats tomorrow vs. Texas.

Tommy Murphy 1/1
Ed Rogers 2/2: Got my setters done from this former bucket boy
Tim Foli 3/3 ( 1 me, 2 50/50)
Collin Balester 1/1: SS ROMLB

Pawtucket
Kieth Ginter 2/2 ( 1 me, 1 50/50)

Total: 11

Pawtucket Pawsox vs. Richmond Braves

Really just went to graph pregame to finish up some 50/50s for Pawtucket and did so for the most part. Had really nothing for Richmond as I really didn't anticipate to see them, but I got what I had done with relative ease. Buchholz was the starter tonight so I didn't expect him to sign but still gave it a shot he started to take a few steps towards me and my bro who were the only ones waiting for him, then he turned around and headed inside. I stayed for a few innings just to watch Buchholz and he looked very good, fastball and curveball were on point tonight, he touched 93-94 consistently I don't see him staying in Pawtucket for much longer. Ended up getting some decent pictures of him and George Kottaras. Was another decent outing in Pawtucket, here is how I did:

Richmond Braves
Matt Desalvo 1/1
Jorge Julio 1/1 "How many you got papi?"
Josh Anderson 3/3 (1 for me, 2 for a 50/50)
Clint Sammons 2/2 (1 for me, 1 for a 50/50)

Pawtucket
Jed Lowrie 1/1-Mini bat (f/t)
George Kottaras 1/1 (50/50, almost done with him)
David Pauley 4/6: 1 8x10, 3 4x6s (had him keep 2 4x6s)
Sean Danielson 1/1, 1/1 (help, 50/50)
Joe Thurston 2/2 ( 1 me, 1 50/50)
Chad Spann 3/3 ( 1 me, 2 50/50)-Tried to sneak in, key word is tried
Devern Hansack 2/3 ( 1 me, 1 50/50)-Surprised he stopped, first time I got the guy all year

Total: 22
