It's all a matter of timing

Ever since the Tampa Yankees came out with their team set for the 2009 season, we've kept our eyes out for team sets from our other local Florida State League clubs. Not too long ago, we picked up and, subsequently, worked one from the Clearwater Threshers. That left one for the Dunedin Blue Jays.

Last Wednesday, after repeated trips to the team's souvenir store over the past few weeks, we finally picked up a team set for the D- Jays. From what I hear, though, we should've went to Tuesday's game, as the set was given away to fans. Our one-day delay, however, meant we spent $10 for the set.

Though the game got rained out -- the third of our Summer of Baseball campaign -- we were able to snag a dozen autographs:

Top row: Kevin Ahrens, Raul Barron and Bobby Bell; and
Bottom row: Matt Liuzza, Adam Loewen and manager Omar Malave.

Top row: Bradley McElroy, Ryan Page and Mayy Rodriguez; and
Bottom row: Sean Shoffitt, John Tolisano and trainer Bob Tarpey.

We're heading back to Dunedin Stadium this Saturday, in what could be our final FSL game of the summer. If we're lucky, we'll add a few more signed cards to the D-Jays team set.
