I went to a Reds vs Indians game in 2007 and took a bunch of pics. Jeremy Sowers was the starting pitcher for the Cleveland Indians and I took this pic of him pitching to Ken Griffey Jr. I found out a few months ago that he was playing for the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs of the Atlantic League (Independent) so I thought I would send it out.
I mailed this pic as a c/o to the Blue Crabs on 6/20/13 and received it back autographed on 8/3/13. I found it interesting that the envelope was post marked from Raleigh NC. I checked the Blue Crabs roster and noticed that he is no longer on the roster. I then looked up the league transactions and saw that Jeremy Sowers was placed on the "inactive/retired" list on 6/1/13, which is before I sent this pic. It appears that the team forwarded this to Sowers and he probably sent it from his home address. I wrote the SASE so the return address is the Blue Crabs stadium address.

Nice success man! He is a great guy. Met him a few times with Southern Maryland (Season ticket holder for another club in the league), and he was always nice enough to sign autographs whenever asked.
Been collecting autographs for well over a decade, just started TTM. First success- Josh Reddick. Lifelong Red Sox fan, and MLB addict.
