Interesting Authentication explanation

YEs, I saw Jake wearing the jersey earlier in the game, so I know he wore it.

The Ryas did this same thing with the last Rays jersey that Dan Johnson wore in game 4 of the ALDS in 2011. I have it video matched even, but since Johnson was not on the active roster, they listed it as "game issued" which I don't agree with.

It is my understanding that if you are not on the Active Roster then it can't receive a "Game Used" designation, regardless of whether it was worn or not.

I have coach's jerseys deemed as game used and they are not on the active roster. Also, I had a Kyle Farnsworth 2012 rays openign day jersey deemed as game used when he was on the DL.

The McGee jersey was authenticated the day he wore the jersey.

The "Session Date" must be the date the authentication occurs, regardless when the jersey was worn. You can't back date the authentication program, but you can add dates/games to it.

I have a game used play off base that has an inital date of authentication but notes in the additional info section the other games the base was used in.
