Michael, that is a beautiful Brett jersey!

Ben

Thank you for the kind words Ben, the Brett jersey is a beauty like most of the gems in your collection.

2001 Carlos Beltran game used jersey
This is the third 2001 Beltran game used jersey that I have owned. I sold my other home 2001 Beltran previously so this is taking the place of the one that I sold before. This one was obtained originally from a shirt off the back type drawing at the game. I purchased this from the original owner. This jersey was worn prior to September 11th as post 9/11 the US Flag patch was present on jerseys. In 2001 all American League teams wore the 100 years AL patch on the sleeve.

This jersey is unwashed. Dirt, pine tar and sharpie markings are present on this jersey. What is interesting about this jersey is the Russell tagging is the 1996-1999 style tagging. The other 2001 Beltran jerseys that I have handled had the 2001 style Russell tagging.

2013 Eric Hosmer game used jersey (MLB authenticated)
This Hos jersey was last worn during a 2-HR game on 6/28/2013. In this 9-3 victory over the Twins, Hosmer went 3-4 with 3 runs, 2 HR, and 3 RBIs. June (2 new hitting coaches, one of them George Brett himself) is the month that Hosmer got his career back on track and when he started to show the promise that he had shown in his rookie year. He continued his hot month of June through the rest of the season picking up the 2013 Royals Player of the Year Award. This jersey was purchased directly from Royals Authentics.

Later on in the season Hos had another 2 HR game on 7/24 against Baltimore, unfortunately the Royals did not tag, pull, and authenticate that home jersey.
