On May 27, we went to see the Cleburne Railroaders play the Chicago Dogs. The Railroaders lost (as always seems to happen when we attend their games), but after the game I was able to get seven player autographs: Zach Nehrir, Joe Corbett, Hill Alexander, Chandler Casey, Alex Jackson, Jose Sermo, and the day's starting pitcher, Travis Perry. After several failed attempts, I was finally able to get Nehrir's autograph (one of the team's best hitters, he usually goes straight to the clubhouse). However, perhaps a more rewarding autograph was Corbett's. He had previously signed a Frisco RoughRiders ticket for me back on August 27 (https://signyourx.blogspot.com/2023/01/jonathan-ornelas.html) and now, playing Indy ball, he signed a Railroaders ball for me. It was kind of special; it felt like I was almost following him on his career path. Another second time signer was Hill, as he autographed a Railroaders ball for me last season. His family is friends with my mom, and we took a picture after the game.
