Going For The Trifecta - 06/06/09

I was able to complete a trifecta this weekend collecting autographs. Starting out in Harrisburg graphing with the New Britain Rock Cats, then post game with the Salem Red Sox in Frederick, and then post game with the Lake County Captains in Hagerstown.

Rain outs and various starting time made this possible. Harrisburg started at 7 pm so I did pregame there. After getting the last couple of pitchers in the stands I headed to Frederick where they were just finishing their game that started at 6 pm. From there I headed to Hagerstown and got there about 10 minutes after the game ended but was able to do Lake County loading the bus. This was all possible with my wife's help who was keeping check of the games on the internet.

New Britain is good signing team. Never noticed any attitude with any of the players. Salem has a few players who have limits and Lin is tough to stop on the way to the field, but overall a great team too, as is Lake County.

The kicker was when I got the mail after getting home. Waiting on me was my first shipment of pre-ordered team sets waiting on my. I sort of expected the Lake County team set to be there, but so was New Britain. Luckily I will see them both later in the year.
