Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

I started to compile several pictures of Royals players, jerseys, bats and etc. I added them all to a Pinterest board. I am going to keep added them whenever I come across them. Feel free to use them as a reference, photo matching, just to look at or whatever. There aren't a ton right now but will be adding as I go along. Here is the link.

Just go to the game and walk in the game used store! Not that tough!

Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

FINALLY got a decent Butler bat. I picked this up tonight at Kaufman. They had about 15 game issued bats on sale and 2 that showed good use. he price was right so I grabbed the only one of the 2 that was authenticated. I figured at the price they were selling at, the sticker would only be for the autograph. It ended up being authenticated to a single. The bat is cracked but I don't care. I'm just happy to get it.

Now if I can score an Aoki from his time with the Royals, I will have a bat from every starting member of the 2014 WS squad.

Really sweet Ventura jersey I was wondering who currently owned that one. Definitely a great one to have from his rookie year. The Royals never auctioned off his JRD jersey last year when he got his first career win so I am guessing he has that one. His first career home win is awesome. Guttapercha are you an endodontist?

Really nice items guys! Thanks Wes, Jeff and Steve for posting. Always great to see some Brett gamers. Love those batting helmets Wes and Jeff. I was eyeing that Gordo hat for a while but never pulled the trigger, I'm sure it smells real good.

Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

Its been well documented that Alex Gordon gets attached to his uniforms and will use an article until it is unusable. Case in point, here is an article from last year's World Series run that discusses how disgusting Alex's hat got during the 2014 season. http://m.mlb.com/cutfour/2014/10/25/...-spray-instead

This is not the 2014 hat, but it is a rookie year 2007 game worn hat that seems to indicate that Alex has had this "attachment complex" since the beginning of his career. The hat has the #7 written on the inside which Alex only wore in his rookie season and has been signed with the 7 inscription as well as "GAME USED". The hat came directly from Rich Altman at Hollywood Collectibles, who for a long time had an exclusive deal with Alex.

Alex played 151 games in 2007 at age 23. Owing to his athleticism, he moved around quite a bit logging innings in 137 games at third base, 32 games at first and 1 game at shortstop. This hat is filthy and has all the wear, sweat and grime you'd expect of an Alex Gordon hat worn when he was primarily playing third and first.

That's a filthy hat. I almost bought that but wanted to hold out for a jersey. Us poor folk have to be picky...lol.

Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

I got another Royals base this year for Opening Day. This is 1st base, 1st inning. I love the jewels. This marks a special base though because my fiancé and I were married in an opening day ceremony at Kaufman Stadium during our yearly OD tailgate party. I added a few links just in case you wanted to share in our little moment.
