Saw that Muno signed, but I was trying to get Gagne. Will try tomorrow for Muno.

Boy seeing Krauss ignoring even a Ducks fan WOW. He was terrible with us multiple times and Noland too looks like its going to be a long year ytying to get them on the road. I will keep up with your posts as I may tell my people sorry no go on them and Gagne.
Hope it gets better for you.

Thanks. Did pregame today and did not do poorly at all. Gagne was said to be 1 per, but it is fine by me. As gates opened, the PA announcer stated that it would be one signature per player, which was a first, due to the crowd, which was smaller than last week for the signing. Whatever. The players did not care about the rule, and did their normal. Gagne was next to Harrelson, so everyone just went straight to him. It was entertaining to see the players directing traffic when we were let on the field, as they knew most of us were there for Gagne.

Frank Gailey- 2/2 cards- surprised me as he was starting tonight
Ryan Dent- 7/7 cards

Melvin Mercedes- 2/2 (1 8x10, 1 Tigers project)

Will head back tomorrow, and see if I can finish up on York.

Game 2 of the series vs. York

Ducks-
Angelo Songco- 4/4 (3 cards, 1 8x10)- Gave him an 8x10 for himself, which he seemed genuinely happy to receive. One of the nicest looking signatures in the league.

York-
Michael Burgess- 3/3 cards
Jose Constanza- 4/4 (3 cards, 1 8x10)
Melvin Mercedes- 1/1 8x10

Only one I couldnt find was Travis Witherspoon. No huge loss, as I got him last season. Will try to finish my Ducks yearbook tomorrow.

Final game of the series vs. York was tonight.

Ducks-
Nolan Reimold- 1/1 ROMLB- Was in pregame autograph booth. Had him sign an ROMLB with his MLB debut date.
Jack Snodgrass- 2/2 (Yearbook, team poster)
Eric Gagne- 1/1 team poster- The way he handed it back caused it to be very much smudged. Oh well, at least he signed it.
Rob Rogers- 1/1 yearbook
Fehlandt Lentini- 1/1 yearbook article
Marc Krauss- 2/2 team 11x14
David Aardsma- 3/3 team 11x14

To date, my poster is completely finished minus the bullpen catcher, and my yearbook only needs Gagne.

[Pedroia15TheBest]

Had very little to get done tonight, but managed to get a bit of that completed.

Ducks
Anthony Vega- 2/2 yearbook and team poster
Tyler Wilson- 3/3 cards- gave one to fellow grapher

Revolution
Manny Corpas- 1/1 ROMLBWS07 underneath a Josh Fogg signature

[Pedroia15TheBest]

Did not really have anything left for York, and with Tyler Wilson in the autograph booth, it looked like I was gonna have to work to get certain items done.

York
Travis Witherspoon- 3/3 cards- 2 Bowman base and 1 bowman chrome, looks like he is signing duplicates this year.
Bryan Pounds- 1/1 8x10

Ducks
Jim Fuller- 0/2 cards- still cannot recognize him
Eric Gagne- 0/1 yearbook- Appeared to stop coming out before the game to both the dugout and the bullpen. Must stay inside for a few innings.

Went across the LI sound tonight to see the Bluefish, and get tonights giveaway, which was a Luis Lopez figurine limited to 500. Was nice to see a league stalwart get his number retired, and hes always been a fun guy to see and talk to. Managed to get a little graphing done, with help.

Bluefish
Frank DeJiulio Jr- 1/1 card
Tony Abreu- 3/6 cards
Alberto Callaspo- 4/8 cards, 3/3 cards
Drake Britton- 4/8 cards, 4/6 cards
Rich Garces- 0/8 cards (straight denial)
Jonathan Galvez- 0/1 card- said he would sign but did not

Manny Delcarmen, Alex Burgos and a few others I needed went out via the bullpen.

[adiddle]

You went to Bridgeport and missed the Ducks 3 run 9th inning comeback against the Patriots to win
When Hunton comes in to pitch I cringe every time as you do not know which Hunton you are going to get. I miss Kelly as he was a good closer

Now onto Bridgeport who I will see next weekend.
I cannot believe Garces denied even at his home stadium. I have heard he has been so so .
Nice to see Galvez has not changed as I have about 5 cards for him which will take all season
I also have quite a bit for Britton and Callaspo and quite a few dupes
The other player with quite a few cards and many dupes is Fields.
I think in all total I have about 50- 60 cards for Bridgeport players not counting about 60 cards for Bourroughs which someone would like as many as I can get signed(he happens to be a hugh fan)
Glad you had a pretty decent night now hope you have a good night on the Patriots side. Remember tonight is the 20th anniversary of the first game played in the league's history.
