TTM Success - Vito Valentinetti 2nd Success

On April 4, I received my second TTM success from former pitcher, Vito Valentinetti.  I mailed to him on March 28 and got the card back on April 4 for a 7-day TAT.

The card is a 1957 Topps that I got cheap at the last card show that I attended.  I figured that I could add him to my Topps Autograph Project, even though I got him on a ball a couple years ago.

Valentinetti (b. 1928) pitched in the majors in 1954, then from 1956 to 1959 for the White Sox, Cubs, Indians, Tigers and Senators.  He had a career record of 13-14 with an ERA of 4.73 and 94 strike outs.

TTM Success - Vito Valentinetti

I received my 71st TTM success yesterday when I found one of my mailer in my mailbox with a ball signed by former pitcher Vito Valentinetti.

Valentinetti (b. 1928) played in the majors from 1954, 1956-1959 for the White Sox, Cubs, Indians, Tigers and Senators.  He had a 13-14 record with 94 strikeouts and a 4.73 ERA.

I mailed to Valentinetti on Monday, March 11 and got my ball back yesterday, March 18, making him a 7-day TAT.  Not bad at all.

Also, Valentinetti answered the questions I asked him:

Who was the toughest hitter you ever faced?
Stan Musial and Ted Williams

Which team did you most enjoy playing for?
Cubs in Chicago

What team do you pull for today?
LA Dodgers because Don Mattingly is the manager.

I really like it when they answer my questions or write something back.  I hope to send off a few more TTMs in the coming days, but I need to pick up some more baseballs soon.
