How do i know all this? I was there on Friday and didn't save my ticket.
Frank,

That would have been a great game to have attended.
Here is your ticket to the Mark Gardner near perfect game.
I'm still working on getting it signed. Currently it resides with a friend of mine in Northern Calif. who is trying to provide the big assist.

Yes, I was there. First row, right behind home plate. Here's a video I took of the last at bat. Pretty amazing game.

Default Re: Charlie Robertson

I wrote to Charlie Robertson several times in the early 1970's, with no reply. Then one year, I happened to write him just before the anniversary of his perfect game (April 30), and he responded in just a few days, and dated the autographs April 30.

So, every year thereafter until Robertson died (about 10 years), I wrote to him in mid- to late-April, and each year he responded, signing everything I ever sent. I never sent him a ball to sign, though, which I've always regretted.

Tom

Default I realize this one doesn't qualify . . .

.

. . . but still a shame that umpire error still counts against qualification of this effort as a perfect game.

I just got back from a west coast 7 ballpark tour with my nephew. We were in Seattle for a game on the 17th. Missed that perfecto by 4 days! We were sitting in a restaurant in San Diego and saw the last inning. To fly 3000 miles and miss by 4 days, ughhhh! And one of the rarest feats in baseball. Anyway, here are my Jim Bunning and Roy Halladay tickets.
