Trick or Cleat Response #5 (Padres)
*Don’t know what “Trick or Cleat” is? Want to read more about it? Then head on over to the Oddball section of this blog.*
Here is the email:
-
“Dear Mr. Macomber:
Thanks for your earlier email; please excuse the delay in responding. We are unsure what it is you are seeking from the Padres. Is it simply a fan pack or some promotional items?
The San Diego Padres”
I must say, that was a rather pleasant and courteous email. Certainly not the abrupt denial I have faced previously, although that very well may be coming in their reply (if they send one).
Now, I didn’t mention this blog or, naturally, the fact that I was posting the results in it in any of my initial emails. So, I decided I would let the Padres in on the secret and see where that takes me.
Here is my response to them:
-
“Dear Padres,
There is no need to fret the delay. What I was inquiring about was something beyond the generic “Fan Pack”. To give you the rundown, I run a baseball blog at www.fastballfans.com and was running a little “experiment”. I sent the email you received to all 30 MLB clubs and am recording the results (both email and “snail mail”) on the blog to see what team/s if any send something above and beyond a “Fan Pack”.
Do with that what you will.
I appreciate and would like to thank you for your time in both reading my initial email and responding to it.
*My Name*
*My Address*
*My Email*”
I will keep you posted as to what happens next.
