"That was one thing my dad always taught us was when we go to a baseball game you ask politely for an autograph. If they don't give it to you, that's fine, they were busy," Vogt said last month before he went from Oakland to playing for Milwaukee. "Understanding that they have a job to do and their job isn't to sign autographs, their job is to play baseball. But some guys will sign them and it's cool if you can get them. I appreciate especially when people take time to put a handwritten letter in there, 'Hey, we're a big fan of you, this is why.' We really appreciate those things. We never get a chance to thank the fans for doing that."
