The Royals had to fly out to NY on an off day to finish the last four outs...Here is the Royals dugout lineup card signed by members of both teams:

One of the most memorable games in the last 50 years!
I've seen a picture of this and have mixed feelings about the autographs, which to me obscure the lineup card itself. I'm a fan of getting a single signature or a couple of signatures for something significant that displays well, but think that it can be overkill to get it signed like this, especially since it's impossible to get people to sign neatly and uniformly.
