TTM Success - Chris Valaika

This 2008 Bowman Chrome was a card I found at a show that I was hoping I could get signed TTM.  The card is an orange refractor numbered 16/25, and I was able to send it to Wrigley Field to get it signed by Chris Valaika.

Valaika (b. 1985) played in the majors in 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2014 for the Reds, Marlins and Cubs.  He had 59 hits, 5 home runs and a .238 batting average.  He is the brother of former Oriole, Pat Valaika.

I mailed to Valaika on August 7 and got the card back on December 4, for a 119-day TAT.
