My first photomatch.

I bought this jersey from mlb.com auction since I did not have an Astros home pinstripe jersey. I didn't really care whose jersey I got, I just wanted one..so I ended up with Dave Borkowski's.

I saw that he had pitched in a couple of home games this year where he might have worn the shirt..and below are screenshots from a game in July against the Dodgers. The pinstripes match up everywhere.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here

Although I started this thread long ago, I admit that I have not viewed it for some time. It is amazing to me how some are still stretching/watering down the term photomatch. Rudy is right ... if it's not an undeniable, exact match, then it is not a photomatch. A close similarity is no more a photomatch than a vague likeness. A photo shows an exact and undeniable match or it does not. Photomatching is not horseshoes.

As for the the member who asked about LOAs that identify the game in which the item was used, this has absolutely nothing to do with photomatching. Kyle and Joel debated this a while back at the beginning of this thread (see posts 16 and 17, in particular) and Joel's side of the argument was correct. If you have a photo that shows a style-match and an LOA that specifies the exact game (or inning or quarter or whatever) in which the item was used to go along with your style-match photo, you still only have a style-match. The LOA can not make the style-match a photomatch. In fact, it has no bearing on it whatsoever.

True photomatch of Kobe Bryant's shoes that he wore during the Lakers home opener this year against the Blazers on October 28, 2008.

A perfect photo match to the December 28, 2008 game that Michael Bush ran for 170 yards and scored two touchdowns against Tampa Bay. This rookie jersey was worn all season long and has a ton of repairs and helmet marks.

Carlos Lee game used bat, used in spring training. I also believe it is the same bat he is holding on the last page of the April 2008 Astros magazine, the wood grain matches up perfectly.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here

Thanks to Jason for picking up this Mike Hampton bat for me at the Braves Clubhouse Store. This bat was used by Mike Hampton on August 5th, 2008, then on August 6th, Yunel Escobar removed the tape job that Hampton had on the bat and Yunel used this bat also and cracked it in his first at-bat. Hampton went 1-for-2 with this bat with a double and Escobar went 0-for-1. I have this bat photomatched with Hampton so now I'm trying to find a photomatch with Escobar, but it will be hard since this bat only lasted 3 pitches with Yunel.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here

I have seen some awesome posts here of some beautiful items. It is nice to see some authentic items for a change, instead of looking at all the junk on the market lately.
Here is my one and only "photomatched" jersey which just also happens to be my "holy grail" item. I went through years of search and several fakes before coming across this gem. The matches just seal the deal with a big red bow! It is my 1982 Herschel Walker jersey. It was worn at least twice during his Heisman season. These matches are from two games that year. against Vanderbilt and Memphis State. He set 2 SEC records in this jersey. Most career TD's and most career total points.
