This is awesome, thanks for sharing. I'm a Braves fan and I got to meet John Smoltz back in 2012 as I was boarding my plane and he was a really nice guy as well. It's world class people like Jeter and Smoltz that truely make baseball Americas favorite pastime.

If I ever met him I know I'd eventually say something annoying like "You know Giambi would have been safe if he had just slid into home" or "How many rings do you think you would have if there were a salary cap?"...
I guess those would be the questions to ask to insure you DON'T get an auto or photo ! Smile

I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

Meeting Captain Jeter & get to chat with him Priceless. Clean player in the Steroids ERA that earned his HOF with hard work & determination.

I hope you did not step on the foot!!! Congrats man.. When I met Thurman Munson when I was 8, I had no idea how much that would mean later in life. No Iphones back then, it was a high five and a good luck in T-Ball. Cherish the moment....
Looking for Mike Trout, Aaron Judge and Derek Jeter...
