Jimmy Leiderman1982 Venezuelan Winter League All Star game signed ball
My company (I was 8 then, now I run it) was a big sponsor of a well known local team and I was able to enjoy the game in the dugout and meet every venezuelan major leaguer playing by that time and old timer Chico Carrasquel who was the manager.
Players who signed: Carrasquel, Tony Armas, Dave Concepcion, Vic Davalillo, Luis Aponte, Leo Hernandez, Luis Salazar, Les Straker, Luis Sanchez, Luis Leal, Manny Sarmiento and Manny Trillo among others.
I'll never forget that day!
