Jazz Chisholm Jr.

I met Jazz Chisholm on Saturday, September 25, 2021 at Tropicana Field after the Marlins lost to the Tampa Bay Rays. I spotted Jazz in the parking lot and recognized him when he removed his hat and his blue hair was clearly visible! I called out his name, "Jazz!" He looked in my direction and I asked him for an autograph. He waved for me to come down to the restricted area  and he signed and personalized my 8x10 picture. He also complimented how nice the picture was. I believe Jazz will have a very bright future in Major League Baseball!

Michael Cuddyer


 I met Michael Cuddyer at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida on September 6, 2021 prior to the start of Team USA's 15-1 18U win over Team Canada. Michael was coaching for team USA and signed this 8x10 picture from the 3rd base dugout. After Michael signed the picture, he showed off the picture to a few players before handing it back to me! The picture show's Michael receiving his 2013 Silver Slugger award.

 On Monday, September 6, 2021, Brad Penny signed this 8x10 picture depicting himself in the 2003 World Series with the Florida Marlins. Brad was leaving Tropicana Field after his pitching staff, threw a 2-hitter for Team USA's 18U win over Team Canada.
