Thanks to Jeff Scott (birdbats) again for another Percival item. A GU Sunday home cap from 2007:

The Percival collection grows!!! Managed to pick up his 2005 Spring Training jersey which is absolutely a mess (stained) as well as a 2005 Road jersey which was initially a Spring Training jersey but the All Star Game patch was added for regular season use. Both jersey come with an LOA from the Tigers.

Thanks guys! It's been an amazing couple of months. He has been my favorite player for years and I have never been able to get any of his GU items. It seems to be raining of late.

Mark, thanks for the headsup. I may have to register with them. Is it an Angels jersey that they have coming up? If so, I'm not to confident in being able to pick it up as I always seem to lose out to another Angels collector.

Take care.

Picked up another Percy Tigers road jersey from 2005 with Tigers LOA. The jersey was originally issued for Spring Training and then converted to regular season (when the All Star Patch was applied). Not sure if there are many of his Tigers jerseys left since this is number 4 for me

Just picked up Percy's Rookie Season Spring Training and/or Warmup jersey. The collection is growing nicely!!!

It's been a while but Jake and his cohort have added a great piece to my Troy Percival collection. Thanks guys.

This is an April 15, 2009 Jackie Robinson Day jersey. Troy pitched and Jeter had a game winning hit. It was Percival's last career loss. The jersey shows a ton of use for one game. Many stains which seems to be common with Percival.

The right sleeve has picked piping, ala Vlad. The screen shots are from a highlight of MLB TV. I can't get the game for some reason (keeps coming up with an error). Can anyone help with a screen shot from the game that shows the right sleeve? Thanks.
