• 2000 Team USA Olympic Worn Anthony Sanders jersey.

A few more.....

• 2010 Team USA World Cup qualifying Cord Phelps jersey. (I did find a photo of Phelps wearing the jersey but not nearly good enough to photo match.)
• 2011 Team USA World Cup worn batting helmet of Travis d'Arnaud. (I couldn't quite photo match but you can see the "f" in IBAF loose in the game picture and it is messed up on the helmet.)

great stuff guys. Just got this in yesterday. Wanted it for a long time and finally pulled the trigger.
Sammy Morris 2005 Jersey.
This was worn for quite a few games as it has a ton of wear and a few repair marks on it.
I had alot of down time at work today so i took it and am pretty sure i have my 1st definitive photomatch.
1st some of the pics.

where the 40th anniversary patch was removed. Anyone know how to get another or should i just leave it?


now this part is where i am 99% sure i have my match. On the right shoulder in the pic you can see the black marks they match the exact place on the jersey.

Picked up a couple new jersey for my hawaii collection, a Dane Sardinha home jersey. Yes its a road, but it was worn at home when the Phillies played Toronto. Also picked up a 05 Jerome Williams Pinestripe, from one of the few years they went with NNOB. Also picked up a Glenn Braggs Reds bat.

Casper Wells Issued Helmet dated to September 5, 2011. Videomatched to the September 4 game, the last one he played before this helmet was collected by MLB. Only thing is that there was no piece missing from the bill during the game. One wonders when it split off from the rest of the helmet, especially since it could not be authenticated as game used.

He goes by the twitter handle @UpstateBaller on twitter. You could try asking him if he remembers breaking it in frustration. Seems like a cool guy on there.
