A while back, Jose Bautista was coaching for some team that was going to come through Kinston; I think maybe Myrtle Beach. For whatever reason, I didn't see him (COVID season, maybe?). I don't remember now. Anyway, I had his cards pulled, then put away, then pulled again. I finally sent to him TTM, and after quite a while, got the cards back signed. I was glad to finally get his 1991 Crown Orioles card into the autograph album.
I also got a 1989 Topps, 1994 Topps Finest and a 1994 Topps signed.
Bautista (b. 1964) played in the majors from 1988 to 1991 and 1993 to 1997 for the Orioles, Cubs, Giants, Tigers and Cardinals. He had a record of 32-42 with 328 strike outs and a 4.62 ERA.
I mailed to Bautista on October 24, 2023, and got the cards back on November 25, 2024, for a 398-day TAT.
