Reds extend Marshall

[Splendid Splinter]

Weak..... I got an autograph Daniel Garibay/Jerry Spradlin/Ruben Quevedo ball. Talk about bringing back some memories...

[TruffleShuffle]

I almost got into a bar fight with Jeff George.

 

meh, who hasn't

[ManCrushOnNomar]

I won a Scott Eyre signed ball in a drawing at the fan celebration at Spring Training in 2006 (I think).

[nocode416]

i've got a 1994 world series ball signed by scott servais, jon lieber and luis gonzalez.

[XZero771679666304]

A program signed by Heathcliff Slocumb, Luis Salazar and Hector Villanueva.

[Irrelevant Dude]

I almost got into a bar fight with Jeff George.

My guess is there would have been a lot of zip on his punch, but he would have swung and missed.

[Clem Fandango]

I won an autographed Felix Pie bat for winning a home run prediction contest on some random baseball message board

[rocket]

Looking through my closet the other day, I discovered a Kent Mercker autographed ball (!!!), a Sergio Mitre (I think, the sig is hard to make out) autographed ball, and a Greg Maddux Chiefs figurine. I assume I got those from NSBB though I have no recollection of how I won them

[CoolHandLuke]

Autographed Midwest League all-star game program with Clayton Kershaw, Brett Anderson, Travis Snider, and Chris Valaika!

[TruffleShuffle]

Teddy Ballgame's autograph on the back of my grandfather's business card.

[El Duderino]

i won a crappy free pizza at wrigley once. Connies? I think

[weis21]

we REALLY need some transactions to talk about.

[Tracer Bullet]

Starlin Castro/Steve Clevenger signed ball

 

Oh, and looks like Marshall gets a shot to close. Good for him.

[erik316wttn]

I have a Corey Patterson autographed baseball sitting proudly on a shelf in our upstairs family room. I win.

[Pushfrog98]

Chico Walker signed picture. Boom. Suck it, [expletive].

[ELCABALLO45]

Ryan Zimmerman signed hat.

 

And the deal breaker, a Derrick Turnbow autographed ball.

 

And looks like Marshall is the new Reds closer.

I once tried to shake Johnny Bench's hand at the civil rights game in Memphis and he blew me off. Johnny is kind of a dick. He was hawking striker medical (I think he got a knee replacement with one of their metal and plastic knees).

 

Kerry Wood waved at me after I told him "we love you".

Looking through my closet the other day, I discovered a Kent Mercker autographed ball (!!!),

 

I hope like hell you gave this its due diligence: A small but meaningful alter no larger then 1/2 the size of your abode complete with prayer wheels, incense, dried flower offerings and a kneeling pad. Don't piss off this baseball deity.

wekse and yeti smoked all his sage sticks at the last cubs @ reds game

[Yeti]

that wasn't sage

[Sosa21MVP]

I caught a ball during batting practice and got it signed by Carlos Perez and Steve Kline. \:D/

 

Got the immortal Chuck Carr to autograph a program for me. Also picked up the sought after Felix Jose autograph once.

 

But yeah my best autograph from Wrigley is my scorecard signed by Ferguson Jenkins.

[Tracer Bullet]

Fergie Jenkins was signing at the ST games we attended. They said if you brought him a foul ball or HR ball, he'd sign for free. As we walked in, a vendor gave me an old beat up ball for my young nephew and said it was a HR from bp.

 

So near the end of the game, I asked Fergie to sign it. He gave me a hard time when I told him the vendor told me it was a HR ball but he eventually signed it for free (at one point, I said "they even use new white balls at spring training!?!) A little hard to read over the scuffs and dirt.

 

I gave it back to my nephew and knowing him, it'll end up in the Beast's collection by summer.

[Post Count Padder]

I forgot I also have a Carlos Pena signed bat.

 

And a Mark Prior signed baseball :(

[AlwaysaCub]

I still have a baseball signed by Bobby Hill.

[Clem Fandango]

Oh yeah, how could I forget about this awesome gem:
