Autographs from today's Pirate charity event!!!

[mstng99tim]

There were 3 sessions, each session was $20 going to charity. I only bought one session (the 2nd session of the day) but while waiting in line, the organizers asked if anyone else wanted the players autos from the first session even if you didn't buy that session. So I ended up with 2 sessions for the price of 1. They had some silent auctions with some nice stuff, like a Pujols auto jersey, BJ Upton auto jersey, Bruce auto jersey, various signed ROMLB's, and some other sweet autos. They had a Pedro Alvarez auto minor league jersey as well, and I checked on it after I got my autos and someone put a $350 bid on it :shock: !!! Sorry for the long read, here's what I got signed:

McCutchen auto bat (close up)

I agree, they have very similar swings and are both fast.

Yeah, it was a pretty good time. And let me tell you, even with those gloves on, the Pirate Parrot gives a better auto than most players do. He signed a bunch of autos for little kids that were standing next to me and his auto is really nice.

The Parrot can hit, too. He jumped in the batting cage at Pirate Fest the year before last and was stroking the ball, costume and all.

I was going to go to get Jack for what will likely be his last signing in Pittsburgh for a good while, but wasn't thrilled that they didn't have any information regarding what players were in which groups. Looks like the only player there I don't already have is Moss.

Yeah, that irritated me as well, but I wanted McCutchen so I was going regardless. They had the list of players up during the game last night, but they never said when each player was signing.
