Default A question about baseball

Hey everyone

How is everyone doing?

Is there a way how I can get an autograph from Pedro Martinez, David Ortiz, Albert Pujols or Manny Ramirez (I will be going to the Dominican Republic from December 1 until the 5th)?

I am a huge baseball fan and it would be an honor to meet them.

Do I need to arrive early to a baseball game? Or are there any community events between the baseball players and people?

Thank you for your time and help.

Are any of the people you mentioned playing winter ball in the DR?

Of those that you've mentioned, only Ortiz and Pedro have said that they would be playing during winter ball, but neither is playing right now. Pedro said he would play towards the end of the season to tune up for the World Baseball Championship.
Ortiz usually begins playing in December also, but not sure when.

Pujols and Ramirez will more than likely not be playing in DR.

Hi there

I think only Pedro will be playing. I am not sure about the others.

Good night.

I know for a fact Manny does not live in DR during the off-season, and Albert Pujols Im not sure about him. I met David Ortiz about 2 years ago in the DR what a great guy he has he gave me his autograph, he thought I was Dominican at 1st. Visiting the DR I have the Dominican Spanish like it is cool being that my family is Panama.
