February Pickups!!

Re: February Pickups!!

One of 12 pucks authenticated by MeiGray at the Winter Classic. I was at the game and watched to see how many pucks were used in the game and aside from the ones MGG collected, very few others were used in the game. There was one puck that was launched out of play that rolled to the monster and I could not see who got it, one puck went out of play toward the first base dugout and was actually retrieved by someone in the front row by the on deck circle, Scott Hartnell threw the last puck of the first period into the crowd behind the 3rd base dugout, and I saw each ref/linesman pocket a puck or two each throughout the game.

This puck was used in the second period and goes nicely with the jersey I got for my wife that was used that period.

That is vert cool. Don't see many game used pucks, but from that game makes it great

2009-10 Alexander Ovechkin Washington Capitals Set 2 Game Issued Jersey with "A". This was mean to be Ovechkins Set 2 home red jersey, however once he was named Captain, they prepared a new jersey for him.

Very nice jersey!


This would have been a nicer item to get sign by Ovechkin... I got his RUSSIAN authentic jersey signed when he was doing the Steiner show!


Very nice indeed!

Re: February Pickups!!

If the Guillen bat was used in a game, as opposed to batting practice, it should be pretty easy to photomatch. I recorded into an excel file every AB that Guillen had in 2009 and the only game he used a Max bat was on April 9, 2009 against the Blue Jays. My notes from the game are as follows. ABs 1-3, Max bat, black barrel and natural handle (non-HD game, may have been Mariucci). If you want the entire excel file, I can e-mail it to you. He used SSK bats for most of his at bats last year.

Thank you mbrieve. message sent. David

Re: February Pickups!!

Two Matsui game used bats along with his batting gloves.

Was a little perturb when I saw the bats - they are two differents kind. One was his normal ash version which he used during the game and the other one is black version which I was told he used during batting practice.

I think Alex Rodriguez has the same bat method with the yankees. His black bat during the game and the blonde bat during batting practice.



PS. I got these from very trust worthy source - Yomiuri Giants Connection.

Re: February Pickups!!

Brett was a wilson guy his whole career..He could have used a Mizuno, but I'd have to see photo evidence of that:

Ditto. I lowered my price threshold considerably to MLB-game-issued or event-used at best:
1) I could find no evidence of him using a Mizuno glove prior to the auction closing, still haven't. And agree that he used nearly exclusively Wilson brand gloves, to the best of my knowledge.
2) I discounted the UDA letter as nearly worthless, since it does not state any specifics on the glove, ie make, model, color, etc. Nothing definitively ties that glove to that letter, ie potential exists for a switcheroo.
3) Letter only says its genuine and authentic, but does not assert that it was used in MLB Game or even used by George personally - its insufficiently vague for my reliance.
4) the glove was not offered by UDA until 10 years after Brett's retirement, meaning a lot of things could have happened in between, All-Star game appearances, 10 years of Spring Trainings, charity/celebrity softball games... Just no telling when and where the glove would have actually been used by George, if at all.


I cannot disprove its possible authenticity, but I sure can't validate it as MLB Game Used by Brett either. I hope for the buyer that it can be validated as genuine...
