TTM Success - Vern Law
After a long day of work, I came home to a nice padded mailer in my mailbox which could only mean that I had a TTM waiting for me. Inside my package was this ball, signed by former Pirate pitcher, Vern Law.
Law (b. 1930) played from 1950, 51, 54-67 all for the Pirates. He won the Cy Young Award in 1960, when only one award was handed out, instead of one per league as it is now. He also won the World Series with the Pirates that same year. Law retired with a record of 162-147, 1,092 strikeouts and a 3.77 ERA.
Law is my 60th TTM success. I mailed to him on June 13 and got my ball back signed today (June 19) making him a 6-day TAT. He charges a fee of $8.00 for a signature on a ball, which I feel is well worth it.
Nice success. i might give this one a try. He's getting up there in age.
ReplyDeleteThat looks awesome man! I got Law a little over a year ago, he's got a great signature
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a very nice TTM ball! I need to look into sending him one. As a Buccos fan, I feel that I need to add it to my collection
