While I've had the ball since last year, I only recently acquired the jersey from one of my favorite Astros' photos.

According to Mike Acosta, Brandon Barnes only wore one road grey in 2013, and the MLB authentication database seems to support that.

To be sure, I videomatched the jersey, and it is the same one I own. I know that this is nothing earth-shattering, but it's fun to get items from photos I have taken.



The photograph, "Shadow Play," that I took at Safeco of Barnes making a nice catch.

That "Shadow Play" is a work of art, how very cool to get the jersey and the ball from it!

That photo is awesome, and the items related help establish quite a unique gathering of collectibles. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise...this is a great threesome.
