Ryne Sandberg signed my beat up 1991 card that I carried in my wallet for 25 years and then signed my photo.

There are some really awesome photos here! Keep 'em coming!
Here I am in 1982 with Mike Scioscia, Steve Sax and Steve Howe. |

This sits in my office. Whenever a patient says they are a big baseball fan I ask them to identify the players (not my son in the middle). I think out of 100 folks maybe one got it right. picture taken in the clubhouse at Scottsdale Stadium where he worked
Second is when my son batboyed for team south africa. Also Scottsdale Stadium and Barry came in the dugout to say hello to the team Eventually got both pictures signed tho almost got killed in the crowd around Albert noah frank albert.jpg barrynoah.jpg Last edited by theshleps; 09-10-2021 at 11:40 PM. |

theshleps, man, there are a lot of home runs in those pictures! I met Frank once and I heard that Albert is a nice guy. But I've heard some not-so-nice things about Barry, so it's nice to see that he took the photo with your son and signed it.

I know I have more but I either don't know where they are or they may be lost
Anyway, here are Dick Williams and Jim Bunning:

Very nice, Andy! Dick Williams is the epitome of the surly-looking old-school manager.

Two more. I asked Rickey to pose with Noah and then ran home and printed it (A's spring training). Ricky wasn't happy to see us again but did sign. Shawn was Noahs favorite player. I had bough Noah Shawns Sky Chief jersey. Shawn came out of the DBacks clubhouse at spring training and we were about 100 yards away. Shawn saw Noah in the jersey and literally sprinted over and wanted to see it, signed it and asked Noah what else he wanted signed. Class act.

Sad remembering the "what ifs" about Howe's career. He was really, really good early in his career, later derailed by drugs. He does look pretty smug in the that photo.

theshleps, Rickey signs what and when Rickey wants.
ocjack, maybe you were in awe? mainemule, when I went to school the next day I showed everyone the picture and said that Howe seemed high as a kite, and you can see it in the picture. Many years later, after his troubles were well known, I ran into one of my former teachers who remembered the picture and said how prescient it was. Last edited by SteveS; 09-12-2021 at 04:13 PM. |

Probably true. I still remember my hands shaking the first time I went up to Mickey Mantle at a show and handed him a ball to sign.

I met Bernie Williams at a Albany Yankees game in 1990 (that's not me in the foreground) and he signed his Donruss rookie. Look how young he is.

Here's my son Xander with his favorite player - Xander Bogaerts - a couple of years apart, displaying the balls he got signed. My Xander has been lucky enough to get to hang with the big Xander a few times, and has a number of items signed by him. Love seeing the pics a few years apart here as my guy has grown!
