Sugar Land @ York 7/25/2013

I went to the beginning of the game last night to get some autographs, Since I just go the Skeeters in Lancaster the day before I decided to do the York side.  York had just activated Brett Tomko and he was the starter so was thinking he wouldn't be signing but when he came out I asked him and he said let me go to the dugout and I'll get ya on the way back I said I know you guys usually had a schedule and don't sign prior to a start he basically said at this point in his career autographs prior don't matter. I guess 40 years old and in independent league you have that outlook.  I had got the same earlier in the year from Scott Elarton. here is who I got last night:
York:
1) Chris Cody - 2 pocket schedules.
2) Anthony Slama - a Card.
3) Mark Teahen - 6 Cards.
4) Brett Tomko - 8 Cards & a Program.
5) Ofilfo Castro - 3 Cards.
6) Juan Rincon - 6 Cards.
7) Chad Tracy - a Card.
8) Julio DePaula - 3x5.

John Franco at 2013 ASG Fanfest
Dwight Gooden at 2013 ASG Fanfest
A friend and I went up to the Javits center for the first day of Fanfest.  It was a long day leaving at 4am and getting home about midnight, but was a good time.  We got some autographs, Freebies and a Topps redemption. So all in all a good day. The following are the autographs I got:
At the Opening ceremony:
1) John Franco - Card.
2) Mookie Wilson - Card.
3) Edgardo Alfonso - 2 Cards.
Autograph stations:
4) Dwight Gooden - Ball.
5) Ed Charles - Card.
6) Art Shamsky - Card.
7) Ed Kranepool - Card.
8) John Franco - 2 Cards.
9) Rollie Fingers - Ball.
Negro League Players:
10) Dale Miller - 3x5.
11) Jim Robinson - 3x5.
12) Bob Scott - 3x5.
13) Pedro Sierra - 3x5.

15) Cliff Floyd - 5 Cards.
16) Joe Bengino - Event Schedule.
17) Evan Roberts - Event Schedule.
Other:
18) Jim Kramer - Big Foot Truck Driver.
It was nice that MLB Authentications were at each auto station and stickered/authenicated  each item signed at each autograph station.  The only people I missed were Steve Garvey and Darryl Strawberry as these were not MLB signers and were not really advertised at the fanfest we were in line for Fingers when we saw Strawberry come in by the time we got Fingers there was no way to get Darryl, pretty much same thing for Garvey.

Tommy Hunter

I went to the Orioles store in the York Galleria Mall for the free signing with Baltimore Oriole Tommy Hunter.  As usual it was scheduled for 11 am to Noon and it got started a half hour late but was out of there in 20 minutes. I got the game used ball I purchased a couple months ago that Hunter had pitched in a game on August 12, 2012. Also picked up a couple of unsigned postcards since it was one per as usual for these signings.
