OT- Sunday NY Times article - Pat Neshek auto collection
 

Interesting article in the NY Times yesterday about A's pitcher Pat Neshek's quest to get an auto for every card in the 1985 Topps set.

Link also has an article about Yu Darvish blowing perfect game in 9th with 2 outs:eek:--once done in 1908 by pitcher Hooks Wiltse. That must have been painful to watch.

Neshek is a great guy and a serious collector. Not a collector where money is no object, a real collector. When he was with Minnesota he used to sign at Twinsfest then walk the show looking for and buying signed items. On top of that, he is a very nice and down to earth guy. He bought a vintage signed item from me two years ago there. Stand up guy so if you are where he is currently pitching, keep an eye out for him at shows. Jason

You would have had to put Darvish's Perfecto in the Minor League record books anyways since it was against the Astros (a AAA team) :)
