I'm going to the Rangers Yankees game Monday and I'm hoping one of my brothers (yes, you're family ha) here at TCC might have some tips. I bet there is someone here who is a regular in Arlington getting autographs. I've never done this before and not real sure about when or where. Thanks!!

I had success last night. I now know when and where to get autos of the Rangers. Unfortunately, I didn't get there early enough before the game to get too many guys, but I did get Jason Jennings as he came in. I also got David Murphy, C.J. Wilson, Doug Mathis, and.. David Cone. Cone was announcing for the Yankees, and we sat right under him. Really nice guy. However, CJ completely impressed me. It seems he has yet to NOT sign. He has some kind of crazy streak going and must be one of the best signers in the league. After the game, he signed for every single person waiting in the p. lot. After he signed for everyone, he also sat there for another half hour just chattin' it up with us. Awesome guy. Pudge is still an Arlington hero. The crowd cheered for him as if he was still on their team. He did a lot of signing at batting practice.
Great game, too. 5to5, Rangers need to score to win. Bases loaded, josh hamilton is up, but he strikes out. All the pressure is on Marlon Byrd, and boy did he provide. Walk off Grand Slam. Tremendous.

I also got Doug. David Murphy and David Cone were the only two guys I got inside the stadium. The others were in the parking lot.
