Interesting... I did not know that. Thanks for the info, guys!

I have a signed Nick Adenhart UD I got IP that was signed right after it was released. Three weeks later he was killed.

Thought of another, the 1995 UD Diamond Debut Steve Rodriguez. Rodriguez had cups of coffee with Boston and Detroit. In the late 90's I saw him with Toledo and he would not sign that card, stating he signed one for his mother and that was the only one he'd ever sign. Fast forward to just last year, with Team USA, and Rodriguez was still sticking to that policy.

Very interesting...would love to (I can guess) know his reasoning....I really don't remember him playing for the Sox.

i've been searching for an 86 topps kelvin chapman for a long time now to complete my 86 topps auto set (there is one on ebay for $400 - which is far more than i paid to get the entire rest of the set so i wont be buying that)

also a 69 topps gil hodges - not too many of those around either
