I visited Ft. Myers FL for the first time in 2000 and went to two of the Red Sox spring training games. I collected autographs of Jimy Williams, Jason Varitek, Brian Daubach, Derek Lowe, Steve Lomasney, David Eckstein and Luis Rodriguez. My brother got most of the above, but also picked up Jose Offerman and Ramon Martinez. We just missed getting Pedro, but it was a great experience. Pictures below show some highlights. Maybe I'll see you there in 2001!!

Several Players passing between practice field and under stands into locker room. This was a great area to lean over wall and drop items down to players to have signed.
