Billy Butler Rookie jersey???

[kcrhino]

I know there are others on this board beside me looking for a Billy Butler Royals jersey, but does this one pass the smell test? It doesn't seem to match the photo's on Getty....

Dennis,

I asked the seller a few questions about this jersey yesterday and he got back to me fairly quickly. I asked a question about how he obtained this jersey and if it had any documentation from the Royals or the Wilmington Blue Rocks. I also asked a question about the tag on the inside tail and here's what I heard back from him.

"no documentation sorry. a friend works for the blue rocks. the auto is not real visible, not really tryin to sell it as an auto although it does have it.

not sure what tag u are referring to. there is one with numbers on the right side inside. Lot-I60749..style-A6800..color-royal

The seller seemed real nice, but I think he may have been misinformed by one of his buddies that the jersey was game used. In fact, this jersey is a batting practice style jersey. The '6800' tagging would indicate the jersey to be a retail issue, so I think it's a retail jersey that was just signed by Butler.

Hope this helps,
Andrew
