I stayed in Detroit for the Tigers and Yankees Series Friday-Sunday. I tried to get Granderson to sign by the dugout before every game but he wouldnt. He was the reason I went to the Yankees series instead of a different team. Anyway heres how the rest of the time played out:

Friday 6/1: Pregame Ivan Nova and David Phelps from the Yankees signed, but I only had something for Granderson. After the game at the parking garage no Tigers would stop to sign. I did pay for a "grab baseball" where you get either a game used ball or an autographed ball, of course I ended up with a game used one. I left empty handed.

Saturday 6/2: Pregame I was again on Yankees side. Phil Hughes signed for one person, and Granderson still wouldnt come sign. During the game my dad tried his luck with a grab baseball and got this:

After the game at the Tigers parking garage it was better than Friday. Ramon Santiago stopped for one second and signed for a girl and my brother, after that people started going towards his car so he sped off. Phil Coke, Danny Worth, and Quintin Berry all signed as well.

Sunday 6/3: Pregame I waited one last time for Granderson. He came to sign... on the otherside of the dugout :( After the game at the parking garage Ramon Santiago stopped again, but signed for a lot more people. My brother got him on the game used ball we had and I tried to get another card but he left. Duane Below signed for everybody that wanted. My brother gave him a ball to sign and he was going to sign the side panel and my brother asked him for a sweet spot he said "are you sure you want to waste a a ball". One of the last people to leave Brennan Boesch stopped and signed for everybody I got a card and my brother got a ball SP of course. And it was my brothers turn to try the "grab bag" and he pulled a Daniel Schelerth ball. Not a huge name, but it is going to replace the Side Panel ball that I got from Schlereth last year.

congrats, to bad the Santiago is in sharpie

Yeah he used someones marker for almost everything, nothing my brother could do about it. Even worse than the sharpie I wish the Tigers didnt love the Side Panels so much. Still better than nothing. I might go back in August or possibly trip to Chicago and try to get them on the road in September.
