question for you guys,
if I buy tickets for outfield seats, would i be able to enter through the infield and get autographs that way?

Depends on the stadium, I think. I remember going to Braves games (granted this was years ago) where you could only go down by the dugouts if you had a 100 level ticket.
However, at Tropicana Field, anyone can go down, up until the National Anthem.
Check the team's website

definitely stadium dependent.
I'm going to try for David Wright tonight, or Johan Santana. Any tips?

Valverde used to sign all the time for the dbacks...would get him almost every game. remember one time when he took a ladies phone and took a picture of him and her with it for her...

last year no one on the nats signed while in phoenix. i think doug slaten signed one card and that was it. But Bob and aaron boone were there, so i got bob boone.

is it easy to get angels, Jays, and Phillies in the stadium when they take BP?
I am thinking of getting ORMLB for autographs since apparently they last the longest (autographs fade), but they are pretty expensive....I am hoping to get players to sign them or else it would not really be worth it in my opinion...
what else do you guys get the players to sign? (that last long and has decent display value)
Sorry for all the questions, I am pretty new...

White Sox signed very well in the stadium. Not sure if it's consistent for them or just was good that day.
Doing the Pirates in a few weeks, hopefully they are good.Hidden Content

I assume you mean the home stadiums? I don't know anything about the Jays or Angels at home, but the Phillies are pretty much inaccessible during batting practice at home. They let you in the stadium to watch their BP, but only the outfield sections are open- you can't get down near the dugouts to graph. Then they open it up for visiting team BP where you can get down. The only time to get the phils inside is pregame warmups, which I can say have been pretty bad the last few years, although kemp has been hitting it pretty good.
Balls are the best at keeping, if you put them in a UV display case out of the light. 8x10 photos in sharpie keep pretty well, again if stored out of the light. Light is the enemy of autos, especially sunlight.
I'd say signed jerseys hold up pretty well, you can try that as well.
ROMLBs are indeed expensive. I've gotten EXTREMELY judicious about what players are "worth it" to get them on a ROMLB. I generally only get stars on them these days.

Thanks for the input! I really appreciate it. Well, I am going to seattle to watch the angels and toronto to watch the phils. I thought they will be taking BP as visitors and hoping to get those. I remember I went to the mariners game twice a few years ago. None of them signed anything. Hopefully they will this time around.
I got a few ROMLB and I think I will take your advice and only get the stars. I will pass on regular players....not that I dont respect them, just don't have that much money to get everyone on the ball.
And yea, I am trying to keep it in dim lights. However, at the same time, I like to display my autos, so I feel like getting them and then store them by putting them in a box (not ball holders) is not the point....But yea, i will try to avoid lights if possible. Thank for the advice.
