I purchased my tickets to this event over this past weekend. As of right now, I am not taking items as I need to take a look to see who I have items for on those rosters.

I was thinking about going to this, but I wasnt sure by the wording of the article if it would be worth it to go to. The "other participants" could be anyone that was playing in it, and not even Dontrelle, Thames, or Robertson. To me, it just seems to loosely written to be able to place whoever in for it.

I emailed the guy the other day, and this was my response:

If Dontrelle signs autographs, he will be able to sign a ball you provided. No baseballs will be sold at the event.

Dear Mr. Fuller,
Hi. I just want to be sure on this. Dontrelle Willis will be signing autographs during the session, but I cant bring my own ball? And we will be able to purchase baseballs at the event to be signed? Thanks for any help.

I dont see Willis not taking part in the signing session. He signs every time you see him and already has done some charity events around Detroit. Id be stunned if he dosnt take part in the signing.
