Most teams in the MLB have had a Game Used program. I think the Detroit Tigers probably have the most sophisticated program.

Working with the Orioles last year we established a game used baseball and bat program but it was nowhere near what the Tigers were doing.

The Orioles had never had a hologram'd game used jersey "plan" until now. The difference between this program and the Tigers is we plan on making this very exclusive and mostly on a pre-reserved basis.

It was a good week to start it as the team had 2 walk-offs with a Wieters Grand Slam and a Markakis walk-off single plus Chris Davis setting the MLB record for most RBIs to start a season as well as popular players like youngster Manny Machado and All Star Adam Jones.

When we pulled 1 jersey from each what we discovered was tremendous use on these jerseys and much more than what they would've gotten from washes this season and Spring Training. We're fairly certain the jerseys were also worn last season which is significant because that would make the Manny Machado jersey potentially his Rookie jersey.

Here's the Wieters Grand Slam jersey that was marked WO for Walk-off and taken off the field last night and hologram'd.

Oh yah, we are now collecting HR balls that land in the bullpen areas and Centerfield and bounce back on the field.
