Enjoy!

Wow aweseome bat...

[brianborsch]

Thanks! I got lucky with finding this one. I have started to collect Adrian's stuff since I feel he will be an exceptional player due to his "story" of how he got drafted. He has what it takes to make it to the bigs and be successful. Although he is struggling a little in single A right now, he is doing better than his other draft mates. He should pull out of it and finish strong. The only problem is that Chase Utley is blocking him.

I also have his first professional GU jersey from the GCL which is auto'd by him as well.

If you know of anyone who has his items, please let me know!

Kurt Abbot 2000 World Series game used bat MLB authenticated and possibly photomatched!






In the description of the auction it stated that it was "broken during the series." I'm not sure if he meant BROKEN broken or cracked broken. But I'm actually HOPING that it is broken, because I found the following pictures on getty:










It could POSSIBLY be the same bat. Once I get it sometime this week I'll be able to know for sure. If it is a photomatch, do ya think I can call it an authentic Derek Jeter game HELD bat?

I got a Jonny Gomes game used rookie (2003) jersey, my third Gomes one overall.

Kinda late, but I just picked up a Felipe Lopez game worn 2006 Reds helmet possibly photomatched:











Though I searched everywhere and couldn't find any perfect photomatches, the seller somehow already had a picture as a possible photomatch. In the picture you can see the black mark right next to the earhole:
