Four days ago I got back a couple of cards that I had sent to Gabe Kapler back in May. The cards both pictured him in a Rangers uniform and I told him to feel free to keep one of those as well. He also signed and returned both along with a business card from his charity to fight domestic violence. Worthy cause.
Both Frank and Gabe appear to be class acts and I appreciate their generosity. I have fond memories of sending cards to various Texas Rangers in the late 80's and early 90's. Getting signed cards returned was always a thrill. Seems that times haven't changed as much as I had feared. There are still ballplayers who care about the fans and receiving their autographs in the mail is still as much fun as it was.

That is very cool! I've never sent cards off to be auto'd, but your success is making me think differently...
Thanks for the comment. I sent a couple (in Rangers uniform) off to Travis Hafner care of the Indians earlier this year. I will let you know how that one comes out as well.
