The Kansas City Royals game used thread

I recently picked up this 2001 Mike Sweeney home jersey. Its dated to the end of the season with the USA Flag Patch on the back. In 2001, Sweeney played 147 games batting .304/347/542 with 46 Doubles, 29 HR, 99 RBI and even tacked on a career high 10 stolen bases, which earned him a second all star appearance. Though it should have been his third as he was snubbed in his breakout 1999 season. Anyhow, great use on this home jersey celebrating 100 Seasons of the American League.

I started to compile several pictures of Royals players, jerseys, bats and etc. I added them all to a Pinterest board. I am going to keep added them whenever I come across them. Feel free to use them as a reference, photo matching, just to look at or whatever. There aren't a ton right now but will be adding as I go along. Here is the link.

Picked up 5 game used bats from the 1982 season. The highlight is of course the Frank White complete with the smiley face on the knob. I tweeted Frank several months back about the smiley face and he confirmed that's how he labeled all of his stuff.

The other bats are Hal McCrae, John Wathan, Jamie Quirk and Dennis Werth.

Forgot the picture with all 5.

Really cool Splitt jersey!

Here is another Hosmer bat, this one is from 2013 (MLB authentication)
This Hosmer bat was last used on 9/28/2013, the last game that Hosmer played in that season. The bat is broken and below is a picture of the bat breaking. Ball marks are primarily on the left of the label on the barrel. There is blue tape on the knob. This bat came directly from the Royals.

Love that color combo of the Hos bat.

I can't post photos, but I caught a game home run hit by Johnny Damon on the fly at Comiskey Park (front row,, RF seats) in (I believe) 1999 during a Sox loss to KC. It was also my 1200th baseball overall. The game was also notable because Chris Singleton hit for the cycle for the Chisox. I had both players sign the ball.
