He was very genorous to ask if I ever never needed something signed by a player in the Sally league he would help me. The opportunity came this season with a young Mexican third baseman on his home team (Hickory): Christian Villanueva. I asked him if he could me anything signed by him and I would pay him the item.

But he sent me for free an amazing package. He sent it a long time ago, but I'm making this know because I just got home from college (my semester mailday)

First, a South Atlantic League Official Baseball:

His first baseball card (I didn't have any)

Ticket from a game he belted a Grand Slam:

And finally, but not least: a game used cap by a Hickory player:

Thanks a lot pal!

Barry is a special guy! Way to go Barry. I have experienced his generosity with many Red Sox minor leaguer items over the years from him.

He is just a Sally

But what George says works too.

If you can read this, then I have been hit by a pitch, please call my mother. And my car is parked in the loading zone.

Oops, forgot to translate

"Can't be happy without pain
no honor without test/challenge
and like the gold today
get through the fire
Dear God help me"

(Noup, it's not a bad translation, I don't get it in the 3rd and 4th lines in Spanish either).

Barry is the man!
My son has a game used Hickory hat as well from Barry.

On another note, I came across these images of a Mexican player on another site, Benny Valenzuela, played in 10 games for the '58 Cardinals and thought you might like them.

Thanks a lot! Great player and manger in Mexico. Mexican HOF

Do you know who has the actual photos?

Benson · Dec 3, 2011

Not sure where they originally came from, it was a web site on obscure players from the 50s and 60s. They are saved to my photobucket, so feel free to right click and save as.

I have been thinking of a way to repay Barry, and judging from his generosity with others, a good, fair gift for him would be...one billion dollars! Anyone want to go in with me?

RandomH · Dec 3, 2011

That's outstanding. Great job , Tramers!!!!!!!!!!!

metallicalex777 · Dec 3, 2011

Both of you are usually doing something nice for someone else, so no surprise on the giving end or the receiving.
