1999 Topps, Darryl Strawberry
#18 Darryl Strawberry
Here is the fourth and final card that I got signed by Darryl Strawberry when he was preaching in Wichita two years ago. There are four of us in the family and we all got one card signed. My wife and my then eight month old baby got extra cards signed for me. My oldest son got to pick out a card of Darryl for himself. This is the card he picked out and it is currently in my collection as he didn't really care for it. Had I known that before the event, I would have just picked out another Mets card of my choosing.
This was not the first time that had happened. I have a signed '84 Topps Ken Oberkfell in my collection that my kid abandoned.
I was hoping to post the picture that we all took with Darryl, but I am not even sure if we even have it anymore. It was on my wife's phone and that thing got wiped clean around that time. She is in bed now, but if she does happen to have it still, I will post in on here soon.
You can see my first three cards of Darryl here, here, and here.
The Super Regionals are set and there were a decent amount of upsets. No one has a chance of locking up all eight spots, but every one has a chance for points. Here are the teams that every one has a chance of getting in. They are all one seeds unless otherwise noted.

Greg- Florida, Texas, 3.Cal St Fullerton, 2.Vanderbilt, UNC
