Scutaro WBC Jersey help

[the3lads]

Hi:

Just received my Marco Scutaro WBC Venezuela game used jersey. I am trying to match it to a particular game. Here are my thoughts:

1. There is a very large dirt mark to the front of the jersey.
2. The jersey shows signs of being washed, as there is wrinkling to the Majestic tag and the "smell" of laundry detergent (when you use too much!).
3. It is a white HOME jersey that could have only been used in 2 games (Round 1 v. USA and/or the semi final v. Korea).
4. Given the signs of it being washed, this would probably rule out the USA game, so it leaves me to believe that I have Semi-Final jersey.

How does this sound? Does anyone have any footage of the semi-final, where one could locate the dirt mark? Can't miss it as it is huge!

Thanks in advance for the help!

Re: Scutaro WBC Jersey help

Just looked up the MLB cert on the jersey, and it states that it was used in Round 1. Now here is a picture of Scutaro in the SEMI FINAL against Korea. Sure looks like my jersey to me. The dirt stains are in the exact same place. So what's up with the MLB description? An error on their part?

Re: Scutaro WBC Jersey help

I would take the photo evidence over MLB authentications, who have been known to make errors.
