Re: anyone else collect Game Used Baseballs ?

Major League Ballhawk however has actually caught 75% of his balls and has 99 game home runs. Hample on the other hand admittedly "begs" for the balls he gets. Personally I would rather catch a ball than be a 30+ guy asking a player for a ball on a daily basis.

Either way though they both do it differently and that makes them both pretty cool.

Ha, I was just going to offer to check at a Tigers game for you too. As for 2008 I see the Jays come here in August. I'm sure I could get you one then. As long as nothing historic happens in the game, they are usually only $35 and authenticated.

Just wanted to say THANKS to TigerSteve and TigerDale for the Tip on the Tigers Game Used Baseballs. I was able to make contact with Marc at the Tigers and he was able to get me a Game Used Baseball ( MLB Hologram ) from Last nights Game for $35 plus shipping.

On another note , I have also picked up recently GU Baseballs from 2004 , 2006 and the Final Out of the Final Round Alex Rios Gold HR Derby Ball.
So the search continues for a 2005 GU Ball. Might have to be one of those over-priced "Milestone" baseballs from MLB.com Auctions to complete the set.
