2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

Another item of interest: MLB.com Auctions just put up "the second set of uniforms issued to the players by B.A.T (Baseball Assistance Team)."

Here's Bryce Harper's autographed jersey: Harper Auto'd Issued ASG Jersey.

Upon entering the hologram number in the database, I got nothing. Apparently, these numbers aren't in the computerized system yet.

I'm now wondering just how many jerseys are issued to the players.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

Of interest....ebay seller zanebats has a bunch of the autographed 2011 jerseys from MLB in his ebay store. The holos are all for AUTOGRAPHED and not game used. His ebay description states "Jersey was issued and/or worn during the 2011 All Star Game workout, batting practice, and home run derby". Also has some autographed not worn 09 ones.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

I did a little recon on the MLB database and between FJ744201 and FJ744246 are the ones listed as AUTOGRAPHED (hamilton 744214)

FJ 744247 to 744282 are the derby GU jerseys. (hamilton 744262)

744283 AND 744284 are both Ortiz BP GU

744285 and 286 are hamilton GU cleats
744287 is his cap
744288 AND 744289 are both listed as Hamilton GU allstar jerseys. It doesnt say workout jersey or BP..both say Game Used All star but its possible they are the workout ones.

I didnt find the other gameday BP ones from 2011 as its a bit tedious. Ill be very curious if they answer you back with the numbers to see what it is.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

Either way Id love to know what the hologram number reads in the database.

I just emailed MLB.com Auctions to get the hologram number. I'll let you know when - and if - they respond.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

Thanks for all that information; it is very helpful. What, then, explains the following item on MLB.com Auctions: Josh Hamilton game used BP jersey?

My contact at The Highland Mint says that last year they sold one of Hamilton's All-Star Game jerseys.

And a quick search on eBay reveals the following game-used ASG swatch: 2011 Topps Update All-Star Hamilton et al.

If your information is accurate, I'm befuddled by the existence of this other All-Star game used Hamilton jersey.

You know I saw that one too....I am thinking either..
A) the MLB hologram wont state game used but rather just autographed
or
B) its the one that was sold by the Highland Mint that has made it way back to the Alumni association. You will note its not coming from MLB baseball but reads "You are bidding on a used batting practice jersey signed by Josh Hamilton. This item is provided by the Legends Memorabilia Collection of Major League Alumni Marketing ". Since none of the jerseys from the Highland mint are signed and this one is, its possible its either just the signed charity one OR they purchased the used one and Josh signed it. Either way Id love to know what the hologram number reads in the database.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

As I understand it, the last few years the card companies got the gameday BP jersey and MLB sold the HR Derby one. Since my 2010 JJ jersey is from the gameday its obvioulsy not a firm rule.

The players dont take home a jersey (or at least they arent supposed to although i understand it happens) They are truly only issued 2 of these. I think the ones they sign for the charity deal are kept elsewhere. Here is a shot of the NL locker room from 2012 and you can see just 2 jerseys hanginging in each players locker (one on each side)

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

Very Very Very useful information. Thanks for breaking it down. I only thought 2 jerseys were issued to the player. Good to know only 2 are "worn"

How does the MLB choose which worn jersey is sold to a buyer and which goes to card companies?

Also, isn't there another jersey that's issued for the players to keep? Or is that technically not an issued jersey?

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

Just some shots of some GU Warmup jerseys I have from previous years (all MLB Auth.) This has been posted here before, but there are 3 each of the all star warmup jerseys made and tagged by MLB. One is worn by the player at the homerun derby and workout day and is labeled as such in the database. One is worn by the player on gameday for BP and tagged as such. The other is signed and listed as autographed in the data base but not as used or worn. One of the worn ones is sold through MLB as the OP is discussing. The other worn one is cut up for cards. The autographed one is sold at auction for charity but is not worn by the player.


2011 Gio Gonzalez, Russell Martin, Ryan Braun, Gaby Sanchez all from workout day/HR derby






2012 Josh Johnson from game day and Chris Young worn during the HR derby which he participated in.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

NO edit feature but the Johnson and Young are 2010 not 2012 obviously
