Re: 2002 Sosa All-Star jersey
Rudy,
Despite other comments, I DO appreciate this information even if it is from an older auction. It gives us all a good heads up because you know sometime it will reapear somewhere and this keeps it on our radar. Thanks for the information that could easily have slipped buy.

Any knowledge is good knowledge, and unless I missed something, your response was rude Joel.

Rudy-
Thanks for the info. I appreciate this since we can look out for crap on the market. Its sad how other members opinions of you and their hatred of you allow them to try and bait you into a responce. Your contribution to this site is far better than the haters that call you and others out.

Re: 2002 Sosa All-Star jersey
Some poor collector has what they think is THE 2002 all star game jersey that Sosa wore. Even after the fact this is great to know. Maybe the collector who won the item can go back to Lelands for restitution. It's never too late in my opinion especially with the overwhelming photo evidence.
Nice work Rudy once again. Keep-em coming!
However just to play devils advocate, what are the chances Sosa pulled a Palmeiro and wore more than one jersey during the game? Going to the DVD of the 2002 all star game would give definitive proof.metsbats86@aol.com
Always looking for 1973,1986,1988,1999,2000,2006 game used Mets post season and Bobby M. Jones and Ed Hearn NY Mets game used bats.

Re: 2002 Sosa All-Star jersey
I am sorry - I was just wondering why it took 59 months for this to be discovered. Some people look for trouble, others just ask questions and get hell because people are so jealous.
And to the Helmet guy quoting forum rules, please block my posts if you don't wish to read them.
I was just wondering, since it has been 59 months, what kept Rudy from posting his findings before then. Did he contact the auction house with his findings so they may contact the high bidder? I didn't ask, I was more concerned what took 59 months to uncover this findings and I get hell for no reason?
God, some people have nothing better to do than insult and then cry wolf.
Then again, did anyone contact Sammy Sosa to see if he wore more than one jersey that day? Did anyone watch the full video of the game to check every appearance to see if there was the same jersey worn? I didn't ask these questions because I was confused why it took 59 months for this jersey to be discovered.
Did someone commission Rudy to investigate this jersey, or is Rudy just looking through every old auction listings looking for items of issue? I have no problem finding concerns - I have a concern what took 59 months and I get hell for no reason by the usual suspects.
As for the Helmet Guy's idiotic comments - BLOCK MY POSTS.
I asked a reasonable question - Your posting of forum rules is really classless and out of line - Get real already. God - Same crap, just today it comes on Sunday - The day we worship the higher powers of the petty world.
My question still has not been answered. What took 59 months to discover these concerns? It was not baiting, taunting or anything negative - I just wondered when the item was auctioned off, why wasn't the question raised then? Is there more to this story we do not know that it took 59 months to bring up?
Chill, go prey, just get off my back for asking a genuine question.

Re: 2002 Sosa All-Star jersey
hey david
in general, i don't really see jersey-changing to be likely during an all-star game when most players only play 1 or 2 innings. although, in the 2008 all-star game, photos show arod wearing 2 different shirts: http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_f...ad.php?t=18215
(of course, this is a guy who markets every little thing he can, including his jock strap).
anyway, this particular sosa jersey is pretty conclusive as the photo i posted shows shows sosa in the second inning and the photo robert posted shows sosa in the third inning. sosa only had 2 ABs; bottom of the 2nd and bottom of the 3rd. that's it. in the top of the 4th, shawn green replaced sosa.
rudy.
