About Patrick Spreng
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
Brooklyn and LA Dodgers, 1884 - 2008 [except appraisals: I DO NOT KNOW how much your autographed baseball (or other collectible) is worth].

Experience
Other than being a life-long Dodger fan I don't have any particular baseball credentials -- I have always lived in the southwest and have only been to Dodger Stadium once in my life.
