April 11, 2026, Charleston Riverdogs at Fayetteville Woodpeckers

Yesterday was a solo trip to Fayetteville to get some cards signed. I worked this past week to prep for the trip. Chris had a memorial service to go to, and Jesse was out of town.

I got into the stadium late due to the long line, missing the free jersey they were giving out. I wasn't too late to get most of the guys I needed, though.

I messed up and included coach Kevin Randel with Fayetteville's stuff, but the former Marlins lifer is coaching with Charleston.

Fayetteville doesn't have a whole lot of guys with cards, not like Charleston does. Still, Anthony Huezo racked for me. Camilo Diaz and Xavier Neyens wouldn't sign at the ramp. I had to walk over to the other side of the dugout to get Diaz. I got Neyens outside after the game.

I got almost every Riverdog that I needed by the ramp, pregame. Caden Bodine was already on the field whenI got in, so i had to get him coming off of the field post game. Mason Auer signed everything I had in my book, which was cool.

Dylan Lesko also signed everything I had. The only players who limited were Camilo Diaz, Caden Bodine and Danny Mendick. It didn't mess anything up, though.

I didn't cone home with very many leftovers to put back in my boxes, so that's always a plus.

In all, I got the following autographs: Mason Auer x 5, Caden Bodine x 2, Cooper Flemming x 2, Dominic Fritton x 1, Taitn Gray x 1, Nate Knowles x 3, Dylan Lesko x 9, Danny Mendick x 3, Dean Moss x 3, Camilo Diaz x 3, Kenni Gomez x 1, Anthony Huezo x 5, Xavier Neuens x 2, German Ramirez x 1 and Kevil Randel x 1 (42 total autographs). 

June 22, 2024, Graphing of Shorebirds at Woodpeckers

My good friend, Jesse, and I were discussing placed to graph this past weekend, and he noted that the Fayetteville Woodpeckers were doing a bobble head giveaway on Saturday.  It worked out for me because I am going to miss Delmarva when I head to the National.  A few of the Shorebirds that I missed earlier in the year were back off of the IL.  I finally was able to get Maikol Hernandez, which was great.  He did 4 of 6, which knocked enough out for me.

Leandro Arias and Jake Cunningham were finally with the team, so I got a few of them done.

Chase Jaworsky didn't have time to stop pregame and after Fayetteville lost, he wasn't signing for anyone post game.  I did get Kenni Gomez, which helped.  There were only two Fayetteville guys with cards, so I didn't have a whole lot in the first place.

The bobble head was pretty awesome, so I'm glad Jesse told me about it. I have already added it to the China cabinet.  I had a great time at the game.  Jesse brought his little brother, Landon, who we had helping us graph.  Then, we met a guy from Instagram who was on a graphing road trip down in NC, which was really cool.

In all, we got the following autographs:  Kenni Gomez x 3, Leandro Arias x 3, Carter Baumler x 1, Jacob Cravey x 1, Jake Cunningham x 7, Anderson De Los Santos x 1 and Maikol Hernandez x 4 (20 total autographs).
