Mike Witt was always an eager and willing signer during his playing days and beyond. As indicated previously, he infrequently has participated in paid signings, but has done a couple in recent years. When he does, his fee has not been expensive.
These days, he is a very active social golfer in Orange County, CA.
Here is a full season ticket to his perfect game on 9/30/84 that he graciously signed for me out front of Anaheim Stadium in 1997. The Angels had a special promotional day to celebrate all the Angels pitchers in franchise history that hurled Halo no-hitters. By strategically covering the main stadium entrance in advance, I managed to get the autographs of Bo Belinsky (D), Clyde Wright, Nolan Ryan, Mike Witt and Mark Langston that day.
Not a bad day's work...
