Miami Marlins and Arizona Diamondbacks respond to fan pack requests

MIAMI, FL. — The Miami Marlins and The Arizona Diamondbacks responded to my fan pack requests recently.
One is not like the other. The Marlins’ fan pack is awesome. It consists of a letter, magnetic schedule, three large photos of Justin Bour, Kyle Barraclough and J.T. Realmuto.
Also a 2018 program and the best surprise an unopened pack of baseball cards from National Baseball Card Day 2017. The card on top is Giancarlo Stanton. To open or not to open? That is the question. It took 41 days to receive this fan pack from the Marlins and it was worth the wait. Every fan should reach out to the Marlins.
The Diamondbacks responded in about 10 days and sent a booklet with a schedule and kids games. Not really anything collectible but kudos to them for responding as some teams do not.

St. Louis Cardinals Fan Pack Success

BUSCH STADIUM — A tip of the cap goes to the St. Louis Cardinals who are still providing fans with a great fan pack.

It took the organization 16 days to respond to my request for a Fan Pack.

Unlike other big league clubs who may only offer digital packs or nothing, the Cardinals came through with cards of Carlos Martinez, and Matt Carpenter. Also a 2016 Topps 5x7 Baseball Card of Michael Wacha, a sticker and nice thank you note.

Thank you Cardinals for still appreciating the fans.

Other clubs who have responded to my fan pack requests include the Houston Astros and Oakland A’s.

Curt Ford and Greg W. Harris Respond to TTM Request

This week autographs from former St. Louis Cardinal Curt Ford and former San Diego Padre Greg W. Harris arrived in the mail box.

Ford charges $3 for his autograph and took a short 11 days to respond to my request.

In addition to the Cardinals, Ford played for the Philadelphia Phillies.

In 2010, he took over for former Cardinal Jack Clark as the manager of the Springfield Sliders.

There was confusion in obtaining Harris’ autograph. 

Once upon a time there was Greg Allen Harris who also was a pitcher for the San Diego Padres.

I mailed my Greg W. Harris card to Greg A. Harris.

The card was returned with a note scribbled on the envelope.

After visiting http://www.sportscardforum.com/forum.php?referrerid=72224  I got the correct address and had the correct autograph in a short 27 days.
