thanks everyone! Yeah the personalization was cool but thank God for magic erasers... it was my only ball personalized so I removed it but it is in the PC. That is his Japanese sig as the first guy got it and thought he messed it up but he asked for Japanese and got it. It looks cool but so small and in a weird place that I am going to ask him to sign in English above it.

I'll get a scan later but Joba blew it off and Hideki signed my ball... looks much better... this is probably the only dual auto I have seen of him. For Orlando people, Hideki is traveling to GCL game tomorrow against the Braves GCL.

joba left early today as he had an 11am flight. One person was out there and he did not stop as someone drove him. Matsui is in Orlando.

In the rain, I was able to get Eric Milton 3/3. He is really nice and I hooked him up with a place to eat that is authentic Philly food. Gorphils...done!!!! I will send tomorrow or monday.

No one ever comments on my stuff... do you guys hate me? LMK what you all think of the Matsui ball... it is one of my favorites now or am I overhyping it?

warjohn

I'll be the first to comment! The ball looks cool, too bad Matsui's autograph is so rough. But it is a really cool piece because once he gets back with the Yankees Matsui won't sign as much.

gorphils

Thanks alot !!! Nice work on the Milton stuff..I really appreciate it..and yes he is a nice guy!

Oh and I'll comment on the Matsui who cares? Haha. No really thats a great success but nothing like begging for comments haha. LOL!

Laurens

Your stories are great and frankly, I'm jealous since you have access to the Yankees' players year round and seemingly are able to get all of them eventually as opposed to us mortals who have wait for Yankees to make road trips and hope to come away with one decent autograph per series.

Good job on the Hideki.

Not much IP for now... got Cory Rasmus to finish a dual I did of him and Colby... of course my 3 year old spilled something on it... Cory also personalized a custom 4x6 IC also.

went to a Matt Garza free signing... 1/1 4x6 postcard and 1/1 ice cream helmet

This is why I will always say the RoseArt silver pen is awesome... this has sat in my car with the cap on it since ARod signed which was in May/June... going on three months. I took the cap off and had Matt sign and this is how it came out.

Could you post a photo of the Rose Art pen? I have been looking for one for next to forever without any luck.

when I get home I will... Target now sells them also as well as wal-mart. If you go to the pen aisle usually at the left side where the sharpies are, on usually the bottom row, it is in a pack of 5 or 8. it has colors of silver, gold, blue, green, purple, etc. It is called RoseArt ColorSharp.

You are welcome, Amy! Hope yo enjoy...

I had to do a show last night of which I signed 9 autographs myself as I was headlining... stupid hounds!!! LOL

Before that I hit Lakeland/Clearwater. Ran into "Mud Man" from Toledo there... a true legend.

It was raining and it was delayed but I had enough time to get everyone I wanted except I missed Monasterios and Satterwhite...

Jeremy Lassiter 1/1 Top Prospect Signature card (TPS)
Jonah Nickerson 1/1 TPS
Michael Taylor 2/2 TPS (1 for a friend)
Ryan Perry 2/2 TPS I talked with him for 5 minutes outside the locker room. He said he tries to get to mail but everyone is sending index cards and his agent said not to sign them. He also has 4000 stickers to sign for Donruss EEE and he said he knocked 1,000 earlier and forgot how to sign his own name and his hand was killing him. One of the nicest guys I have met and loved signing. He was looking for stuff to sign for everyone. There were a bunch of kids and their cheap giveaway baseballs.
Cale Iorg 2/2 TPS
Rick Porcelli 2/2 1 Tri-Star and 1 TPS he said he tried to do mail in the beginning but got to be too much with moving around and no clubbie to mail the stuff out then it got to be too much. Also said he tries to sign at games but notices the dealers and said and I quote, "That stuff pisses me off." Really nice guy though and came over while chilling out waiting for the rain delay at the beginning.
I missed Savery somehow but saw him charting and it was the top half of the inning so I got him to do 2/2 1 Tri-Star and 1 TPS. Nice guy too. I told him I was on my way to a show and he asked who my favorite comics were. He s a big Brian Regan fan as well.

Well, satisfied that I got who I wanted and made it to the show in time.
