Harrisburg Senators v Richmond Flying Squirrels

I brought a Babe Ruth FDC with me to the game, and was able to have pitcher Erick Fedde sign the cover during the pre-game warm-ups. Applied the Major League Ballpark passport stamp applied afterward.

The Senators lost to the San Francisco Giants' affiliate Flying Squirrels, after the Squirrels scored 7 runs in the top of the ninth. Fedde entered the game in the 7th inning
