Re: October pickups....

The best part about your assortment... they are all rookie gamers. If Jackson continues to be amazing, you will probably have the best jackson collection around. Incredible.

PS. Im picking up my BWP Jackson Gamer today

Re: October pickups....

He was using Easton gloves as well.

A dealer at Redsfest has had one for sale the past couple years but I forget what it looks like. I will have to look for it again this year

I misspoke, I meant to say Easton not Mizuno. Was thinking of my Mesoraco when I typed that.

Hey Chris,

I believe Jane & Darla have/had that other Cueto Easton glove. I have seen three variations of the white Eastons. He used white leather/brown lacing/black lettering for his MLB debut and a few games after. I have one that is exactly like it, except the Easton lettering on the fingers is a natural white that matches the leather. Johnny actually confirmed to me that he used it during 2008, and inscribed it as such. The one Jane & Darla have is similar to both of those, but it has some sort of black rubber finger cap where your index finger would stick out.

Re: October pickups....

I finally picked up a Johnny Bench bat, an early career one - on my list for awhile.

1969 H&B S2 model - signed, with terrific use. This model was ordered just one time, a single order in early August of that year. It also came with provenance from Bench confirming it's use and that the bat originated from his personal collection.

Re: October pickups....

I love when the UPS guy comes early. I think I have all brands and models covered.

That BWP is one of the best looking bats I have seen in a while. Don't let that one go without contacting me first.

Re: October pickups....

Ben, that's an awesome Bench bat.

Most definitely! I'm in photo-matching mode for it.

Re: October pickups....

Hello Guys,
I am sometimes apprehensive to post items here because I feel like I am gloating. I am so excited about this item that I want to share it with the forum.

September 17, 2010 Game Used Baseball (FJ080358)
J. NIESE THROWN TO J. HEYWARD, SINGLE, 3RD INNING

I have looked and looked all through the internet and have not seen a single example of a Jason Heyward MLB hologrammed baseball anywhere. It could be the only one around. A great piece of Game Used Memorabilia from the probable National League Rookie of the Year.

Please let me know if anyone has come across one in their travels.

Thanks,

Ron Michne Jr

Great ball! Don't ever feel like you are gloating or bragging. I can't tell you how helpful it is to fellow collectors when people share their acquisitions and provide useful information about those items.

I completely agree. I love to see the items in this section, it is one of the many interesting features of the forum. I know I have received good information from some of my posts, and I got some items due to some posts as well.

That is really a nice ball, great pickup!

Thanks Ricardo!

Re: October pickups....

Since my other thread was for some reason deemed against the rules (I was just excited and proud of my acquisition and wanted to share it with the hobby community, I'm not sure what warranted a deletion because I read the rules carefully and I did nothing wrong) I will post my new item here.

I recently picked up a game used ball from Halladay's postseason no-hitter. It was used to record the second out of the sixth inning and was thrown three times to pinch hitter Juan Francisco for a strike, a ball, and a groundout. It is one of only 4 balls thrown by Halladay which resulted in an out that was authenticated by the MLB from the game and not kept by Halladay or the team and one of only 17 total balls thrown by Halladay (Halladay kept one and the Phillies kept one, dropping the total to 15 balls that could become available).

Re: October pickups....

I finally got a CJ.....I have been looking for quite a long time! I was able to match it to the Denver game this year.

AWESOME jersey - just curious, where'd you score this? He's the big star in our town (Nashville) as you can imagine.

Re: October pickups....

Here is a Jay Bruce bat I picked up off of ebay, uncracked and lightly used. Shows some nice ball marks on the back of the bat. Dated 4/21/08 but I havent been able to find any pics of him using this bat or this model. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check getty images i tried finding a photo before i listed the bat on ebay. There is a studio picture from 2008 where he is holding the same model bat only it is black in color.
