AUTOGRAPHS: Best time is right before or just after the completion of a workout as players make their way from the Martinez Sports Center to Pepin/Rood Stadium. Be warned. Not everyone signs and their tanks are empty after two hours in the heat. Want a tip? Try an afternoon workout. The crowd is thinner and players are in a hurry for lunch.
