padrograph #1011, I sent this to Mr. McGwire last year at Spring Training. I received it in the mail today. I was really happy to see an envelope that I sent out come back and was really jacked to see that it was Mark McGwire. I really didn't think that I was going to get this back. That only leaves one coach that I sent to last year that I didn't get back, Alan Zinter, the hitting coach.

Very nice! I'm tempted to try sending to him this year.
Great success! I got him back in 2012 or 13, but hadn't seen him since. Also had no idea he was a Padres coach!
That's awesome!!
