And Twins! (The Twins talk and pick-up thread).

[TBTwinsFan]

On a whim, I picked up a Cuddy GU bat at TF today
They had two for 150 and two for 200 on the wall
I looked at the two that were 150
One of them was a clean break bat, had some grass on there and good ball transfer marks
The other was pretty lame, so I went with first one, why not
After I got home I checked out the MLB holo number and this came up:

Game June 9, 2011 - Wow, I was at that game
Broke 8th inning on a foul ball

OK, I remembered that Cuddy hit a HR that game, was pretty sure it was a 3 run shot
Sure as shat, I looked it up and in the 5th it was a 3 run HR
So I was thinking, more than likely, this bat was used on the 3 run shot, then broke in his next AB in the 8th, pretty sweet IMO. What luck eh? To buy a bat on a whim and just have it happen to be from a game you were at and more than likely be a HR bat.

That is awesome! I tried that the last time I was at the Majestic store. I was looking for a ball from the game I was at. I ended up with one from that series with the inaugural stamp so that was cool.

I have decided that I am going to make a run for a Perk jersey. If I can get one for 200 at a Pro Shop vs. 300 at TwinsFest, I save $100. I dare not post any plans as to when I will be picking it up. We know how that will end... but if all goes well I will grab one. The problem is I still got 4 things to save for which sucks...

Do any of the pro shops sell GU batting gloves?

You could call and ask. I doubt many would sing batting gloves are normally just given away.

If you are looking for Span batting gloves, call FanHQ and see what they can do for you, they are Spans official headquarters.

Span or Plouffe

Ever since Hughes popped up with the bases loaded yesterday, he's been crushing the ball. Gotta keep this guy up the rest of the year.

Won another Plouffe plate, so now hoping to get it signed last game

 

[TBTwinsFan]

Awesome stuff Chris! I need to have a stub inked by Cuddy. I doubt I will ever see him.

Sweet pick ups MC. You gotta pull some screen shots from that game for the bat. Might be able to photomatch it pretty easy from the game. MLB.com TV has games in HD from almost every game this season. Maybe Flight or K Hess on GUU site can do it.
Never seen a Cuddy 5 inscription like that. Is that your second Ginter plate from 2011. Inscription Tix's are great pieces.
I did see a Cuddy super on ebay. You score that one.

Love the bat!

Picked up another....7/10...$16.05.

There are a few more listed right now, but the prices they have set are to high :?

I love this year's Tribute base cards. I know that's a parallel, but they look awesome.

 

[TBTwinsFan]

Getting organized sucks... Gotta do it for school which means I am cleaning my entire room and basement out and donating 90% of the stuff in them to the local thrift store, selling about 5% of it, and keeping the rest. Eventually I will tackle the garage and get my stuff out of there.

I am finding a lot of cool Puckett oddballs from my quests at TwinsFest though. I will have to research them to see what they are.

Does anyone know where The Dugout is in St. Cloud? It was in a strip mall but I heard it moved to Sartell. They buy gaming cards there and I want to sell mine or trade them for a few Perk base cards. The owner said a few years ago he only buys basic cards for $.01 a piece but it's on the way to my grandparents so I can drop in the next time I head up there.
