Well here's update #1: The Newark Bears had a good game. They won 6-3 and starter Alex Smith lost his no-hitter in the 8th. I did ok with autos. Couldn't get a pic with Raines, hopefully next time. For some reason I just wasn't feeling it today. Can't explain why, just how it was. Anyway here's what I ended up with. Daryle Ward 2/2 Raines Jr 1/1 Raines 1/1 Pete LaForest 1/1 Brandon Watson 2/2 Alex Smith ticket (I asked Alex to put the date and 1 hitter and he put the date and 1) I really hope I can get a picture with Raines if I go on Sunday. Up next: Today: Newark Bears vs Quebec CapitalesSaturday: Mets vs Phillies Sunday: Newark Bears vs Quebec Capitales Monday: Mets vs Marlins Mets/Phillies tomorrow.

Thanks I'm gonna need it! I'm bringing 4 baseballs and I have no idea if I'll get them all signed and I hope not, at least for today. I have pics of Lee and Halladay and the balls I'm saving for if I get the chance for some players like Howard, Rollins, Dom Brown, Jose Reyes, Beltran, Bay, Johan etc. You never know what can happen so let's see. Who knows, I might only get one signed.I just hope I don't use up all the balls and then I get the chance of getting another great player and I have to resort with a card.

After the game I only got one, but it was worth it. A star. I will reveal it later. Nah you know what, I think I'm gonna start my little report now! So the Mets killed Philly, something like 11-2. Getting autos inside was brutal! Only legit chances were Michael Martinez and Howard. I tried calling for Doc Halladay but no luck. Martinez didn't sign and Howard didn't ask me to toss him a ball after he signed for a few shortly before gametime. BP was a total waste, would've been better off trying to catch a ball. After the game I only got one person. You will see who it is at the end. Other Mets were signing but I didn't go after them. I tried for Jason Bay but I came late and he didn't get me.
Ken Oberkfell 2/2 Mookie Wilson 1/1
I made a custom 8x10 for the Mets to sign, similar to the World Series one. On that I got: Daniel Murphy, Dillon Gee, Scott Hairston, Ike Davis, Sandy Alderson, Ryota Igarashi, D.J. Carrasco, Justin Turner & Bobby Parnell.
Ed Kranepool SS ROMLB (Asked him to put 69 WS Champs)
And.....
Jose Reyes SS ROMLB!
I'll get some pics up eventually. Thanks for following along.

Thanks. Well the game was fun. Marlins won 4-1. I've heard the Marlins are a good signing team but yesterday was just as bad as the Phillies! I did the Mets before the game of course, got around 10 autos maybe. The only person I got that's affiliated with the Marlins was Eduardo Perez. He's an awesome guy to be around, was joking around with a couple of the people he signed for. I got him to sign this 8x10 of the Cuban flag because I'm Cuban. I never really thought of making something specific for Cubans to sign so I thought it was about time. So as soon as I got in, I see DeWayne Wise talking with someone and then shortly after he walked away. I tried calling for him but nothing. Now during BP, I'm standing with a few other Marlin fans right in the front row practically. We are right behind the tarp they roll out. I am wearing a Marlins jersey. I'll cut this story short. Not one Marlin stopped to sign in the outfield. It really was surprising, I mean they warmup right in front of us. One Marlin did sign a little to the right of us however, Hanley Ramirez. Unfortunately when he started signing, he grabbed someones sharpie. But not just any ordinary sharpie, a BROWN one. Basically how he was signing for people, you would have to throw it him, so a baseball would be the best item. After a little bit he actually signaled to me to throw my ball to him. Then I showed him my pen to see if I could toss it too. But of course he shook his head. Some may not understand this but I just will not have someone sign an official MLB baseball that costs 15 bucks to get signed in sharpie, let alone brown. Pens are the only things you should get those balls sign with. Sharpies will fade and he probably wouldn't have signed it on the sweet spot so it just wasn't worth it. I already got his auto 4 years ago so it's not a big loss. Then shortly before gametime was the final chance for some Marlins. The players we had a chance for were Logan Morrison, Omar Infante, Hanley, Mike Stanton, Bonifacio and Gaby Sanchez (I think). Once again I was surprised to see that none came by to sign. Only a few actually signed above the dugout but it's not easy to sneak into that area. My one highlight during BP though was that DeWayne Wise tossed me a ball, my first one at an MLB game ever! After the game was a bit unusual for autographs. Security blocked off the usual spot for the Mets for some reason. It was very unusual, I've never seen them do that recently. As for the Marlins, I didn't realize that today would be the getaway day since they were just flying here for a game that was rained out back in May. So we got nothing after the game. Anyway here's who I got for yesterday: On my Mets custom 8x10 I added 8 more guys: Jason Pridie, Nick Evans, Josh Thole, Ruben Tejada, Lucas Duda, Willie Harris, Pedro Beato and Jason Isringhausen Eduardo Perez - Cuba 8x10 Got Tejada (who also made the top play on Sportscenter) and Isringhausen each on a card too. Also got 2 cards signed for 2 kids. Don't remember who the players were. Thanks for reading.

Went to that Bears game last night. Bears lost 8-4. I did surpass my little milestone before the game. Here's who I ended up getting (could've gotten more players): Jim Leyritz 1/1 Abraham Nunez 2/3 Tim Raines 1/1 Abraham Nunez helped me make my mark. And of course coincidently, there's an interesting story on how I got #1000. I had 2 cards out for him to sign. He told me he doesn't sign one of those cards so I gave him another. The card he doesn't sign (which is pictured) is an error card. Nunez and Ramirez's names are with the wrong picture. I'm surprised I didn't notice this. Also after the game I found a baseball by the tracks. Not sure if this has been around since at least last season since they joined the Can-Am this season. Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed.

I'm on the subway now. I did ok, wish I could,ve gotten more Marlins. Here's my haul:
Eduardo Perez 1/1 (Awesome as always) Manny Acosta 1/1, Mets 8x10 Nickeas 1/1, Mets 8x10 Greg Dobbs 1/1, Marlins 8x10 Willie Harris 1/1 Bay 1/1, Mets 8x10 Darling 1/1, Mets 1986 8x10 Mike Cameron 2/2, Marlins 8x10 and card
Petersen came with Dobbs but wasn't sure who he was so I didn't get him. Other Mets signed but didn't need them. Oh yeah and I got a card signed by Daniel Murphy for someone. Glad I got Darling out of the way for that. I will get pics up later. Thanks for reading.
