Lonnie Walker IV

My son bought a storage unit and found about 20 cards some top loaders and some one touches.  One of the cards was this Contenders Lonnie Walker IV autograph #'d 15/25. Not a bad find.

Revolution

Last night I went to York game for the Long Island Ducks.  The game was a 12-9 win for the Ducks shrinking the Revs 2nd half lead to just a game with 7 games left in the season and 1 final game in this series. I only did York autographs as I wanted to get some on game programs and had a card and 8x10 of new Rev Oscar Hernandez. On the programs I was able to get Nick Dunn, Jacob Teter, Jackson Ross, Brian Rey, Austin Bates & DeVontae Brown for a total of 11 autographs. It was also a post-game fireworks night.
