    Take it with a grain of salt. This is the same member who can't even understand what a basic "photo match" is (http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_forum/showthread.php?p=78580#post78580), let alone possibly try to comprehend what we're discussing on this thread.

    Kyle asked for a value on this rare ball, and with some type supporting documentation, a value can be derived.

    Hey Kyle,

    BTW - The Twins Pro Shop was selling Frank Thomas 500 HR game used balls for $150 last year.

    Kyle's question is what is the ball worth. Howard asked a very legit question asking if Kyle has proof, something that will determine the value of the ball.

Kyle I hope you do have proof so he can just shut up that's the only way he goes to another thread and tries to find something else wrong with a piece.

    Quite often, balls from a significant event in a players’ career are accompanied with some type of LOA from the player himself, a team employee or agent. It not only assists in establishing authenticity, but also proves extremely important in the event you decide to sell it.

    In this case, do you have any type of LOA or validation to definitively prove it’s from Smoltz’s 3006 K?

    Thanks everyone!!

    Howard-

    Well all I have is my ticket to the game, about 300 pictures from the game, and I got the ball from Brian McCann immediately after the strikeout so maybe from game footage (MLB.tv) you could see him throwing the ball to me.

    I guess I should have added in my post, I got a little piece of history last night too.....magglio ordonez got his 1000th RBI (& 250th Home run). I just got his authenticated hat he wore during the game (I had to buy this though), cool piece though.
