Other IP Stuff
I went to see the Richmond Braves play the Red Wings yesterday. I am uber low on cards of the guys, so I'm scrounging to find stuff to be signed. I brought my 2005 Red Wings year book (which is in pretty bad shape, but I thought I'd bring it anyway), blank ICs, 2006 pocket schedules, 2007 pocket schedules and 2006 autograph sheets. When I say I don't have a lot of cards for Red Wings players, I mean it - I had a total of 4, three of Ricky Barrett and 1 of Brian Bass.
Anyway, here's how I did.
In my Red Wings yearbook, I got David Gassner to signed two of his pictures in it (1, 2). He also signed a 2007 pocket schedule and a card (which some guy gave me, it was pretty cool of him). The pocket schedule doesn't even have Gassner's picture on it - the three players on it are Matt Garza, Josh Rabe and Garrett Jones. But hey, it's still cool.
Speaking of 2007 pocket schedules, Josh Rabe signed one for me.
Ricky Barrett signed three of my remaining four Red Wings cards, so now I have one left.
Tommy Watkins signed another magnet schedule for me.
Kevin Slowey and Jose Morales signed an autograph sheet for me. I meant to pull out a clean sheet for Slowey, but I pulled out the one with Morales' signiture on it so I had him sign that one.
From the Richmond Braves, I got Doug Clark to sign a card and Bill McCarthy to sign a blank IC. I tried getting Graham Koonce to sign a blank IC, but he said he doesn't and told me how there are dishonest people out there et cetera et cetera. He asked me if I had anything else, so I just gave him a Red Wings autograph sheet and he signed it.
It was a good game too. The Wings game from behind to win it, with a Doug Deeds homer tying the game.
Great game today. This is what I got IP:
Garrett Jones signed 2/2 pocket schedules for me. Manager Stan Cliburn, Tristan Crawford, Julio DePaula, GM Dan Mason, Denard Span and Matt Tolbert signed pocket schedules too. Doug Deeds, Matt Moses, Matt LeCroy and Jason Miller all signed team autograph sheets for me.
Scott Baker, coach Stew Cliburn (1/1), David Gassner (5/5), coach Rich Miller (1/1), Kevin Slowey (2/2) and Glenn Williams (2/2) of the Red Wings all signed cards for me. Former Red Wings and current Chief Beau Kemp signed a couple cards for me too. Gassner also signed an autograph sheet, Slowey personalized.
Trent Oeltjen signed my ticket stub and Matt Garza and Tommy Watkins signed my magnet schedule.
What a game! I witnessed my first ever no-hitter. Jeremy Cummings of the Red Barons no-hit the Wings. He was only 4 walks and 1 hit batter away from a perfect game!
I also did pretty well IP:
Red Wings:
Ricky Barrett-signed 3/4.
David Gassner-signed 2/4.
Garrett Jones-signed 1/1. I didn't have a card, so I had him sign one of my binder pages.
Bobby Korecky/Tommy Watkins-1/1, 1/1. They both signed this for me.
Luis Maza-signed 1/1. He ignored me before the game but I got him afterwards.
Quinton McCracken-signed 1/3. He didn't seemed too pleased to be signing.
Josh Rabe-signed 1/1. As usual, he was cool about it.
Kevin West/Glen Perkins-1/1, 1/1. They both signed this card for me.
Glenn Williams-signed 2/2.
Finally, someone else got this for me-a poster with a bunch o' signatures.
Red Barons:
Gavin Floyd-signed 2/2.
Jeremy Cummings-signed 8/8. He was really cool about it.
Better day today than my last outing. Goose Gossage was a special guest at the game-he signed a card for me.
Jason Bartlett and Luis Maza of the Red Wings both signed team cards for me.
Pat Neshek of the Wings signed a pocket schedule and team autograph sheet for me. Garrett Jones, Kevin West, Jason Tyner and Kyle Lohse of the Wings also signed autograph sheets, while Mitch Jones of the Clippers signed an autograph sheet as well.
Finally, I started a team ball-so far, I have Chris Heintz, Jason Tyner, Beau Kemp, Gilbert Velasquez and Glenn Williams on it.
Overall, a good day for me.
