Cedar Lake resident James Miller beamed with pride as he told his 10-year-old grandson and namesake that he saw Cubs pitcher Milt Pappas pitch in person and witnessed his no-hitter on television.

“I’m a big Cubs fan and I’m glad I get to share this experience with my grandson because I used to watch Milt pitch and he was always one of my favorites,” said Miller. “You have to know and appreciate the history of the game, because these players were so impressive.”

HANK AARON AUTOGRAPH SIGNING STICKER SHOCK! ONE WOMAN DIDN’T REALIZE HOW MUCH IT WOULD BE TO GET SOMETHING SIGNED!

Beverly Hagen and I have come down with a case of sticker shock over the price of a Hank Aaron autograph.

This happens to me a lot for the price of most things. My wife says I should always double my first guess for what something might cost, and then I’m usually still low.
Beverly was hoping to get Aaron’s autograph on a 1957 Milwaukee Braves pennant she has had since she was a kid. Admitting to naiveté, she thought that a long wait in line at Waukesha Sportscards is the price she would pay.

The real cost: $349.
