Classic TTM Success: Don August

  I started collecting MLB autographs through the mail in 2010. I posted my stories on a content mill that is now shutting down. So in order to keep a record of my successes, it is time to move them to my blog. Here is what I published on Feb. 13, 2013.

Former Milwaukee Brewer pitcher Don August responded to my through the mail autograph request and answered a question I asked.

August pitched for the Brewers from 1988-91.

In his rookie year, August went 13-7 with a 3.09 ERA.

He never made it to the playoffs but is noted as the winning pitcher in the inaugural game at the Sky dome.

In my autograph request I asked him if he ever gets tired of fan mail.

August's reply is "Its OK. I don't mind. Its been over 20 years since I played in the MLB and I still get cards to sign. It's amazing! DA.

Today August is a teacher at a middle school in Wisconsin.
