Pawtucket Vs. Lehigh Valley (Phillies) 7/28/13

Another Sunday, another 'graphing day in Pawtucket. A very hot day actually, and one that had some high and low spots.

One of the bigger high spots was meeting former White Sox great, and World Series Champion, Jose Contreras. The Red Sox recently signed him to a minor league deal.

He was also nice enough to take a photo with me, which I had to crop badly because New England's favorite security guard HAD to photo bomb me. I was honestly fuming for a good ten minutes. And he knew it. I told him I really appreciated him ruining the picture.

Another high spot of the day was meeting one of my favorite players, Will Middlebrooks again. He is always so nice, and I was able to get 2 more photos signed. If the Red Sox make a trade in the next few days, this may become the last time I met him.

I was also able to meet former Red Sox (2003), Brandon Lyon. I didn't have anything so I put him on a photo sheet, but my friend hooked me up with a photo which was nice:

I then went inside and was able to get Red Sox #5 Prospect, Allen Webster who has pitched a few games for the Red Sox this season:

Clayton Mortensen, who has been really tough outside compared to last year. Just kind of arrogant really. Smirking when people ask and he says, "Sorry guys." Every single time.

Xander Bogaerts only signed a few, and was avoiding photos. Jackie Bradley completely denied.


I'll be at Fenway tomorrow night. I'll be sure to post if I get lucky and end up with something!
