Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

Welcome Stanley and TBM, thanks for sharing your items!

If they are made by Russell, they are almost certain to be from 2004, as the Royals (and the other MLB teams supplied by Russell) swithced to Majestic for the 2005 season.

I would say that the pants were likely issued in 2002. They may have been last worn in 2004, I have no idea. The last two digits on the pant tag I believe is a worn "02." To my knowledge that would indicate the year the pants were issued. Berroa was called up first in September 2001, then again in 2002 and won rookie of the year in 2003. As Dave stated in 2005 the Royals switched off Russell to Majestic. I hope that info helps

Dave,

Thanks for the confirmation on that time frame. I have always wondered about how accurate it was and now I know. Thanks very much and thanks for all the help you provide to all of us!!!!!

Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

Here is a game used set of pants from 2004 Rookie of the Year Angel Berroa. When I bought these I was told that these were from that 2004 season. I do not know if they were really from that year or not. If anyone has any input on the possible year of use please let me know. These pants show good game use on the front and the back with some dirt and maybe light grass stains on them.

Forgot to put in there that this is an Omar Infante World Series game used hat.

Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

Here is another hat. This one was used in four games (1,3,6, and 7) of the 2014 World Series. I have always wanted something game used from a World Series and am elated that it is a Royals game used item.

Here is a pair of Billy Butler signed batting gloves. These batting gloves are non-authenticated. I did purchase these from the Royals Authentic store in September of 2014. I believe they are game used and they do show some good wear and tear especially on the right hand glove. The index finger shows some good wear. If you have any thoughts on if these are game used or not then please share them, I would be interested in the feedback.

Yep. I wouldn't buy a Frank without one. He responded to me on twitter that he put it on all of his equipment. Good thing for us because it helps us identify them easier.

On another note, it was great to see Frank back on the Field last week for the Franchise 4 after his dispute with the Royals front office.

Sportsnbikes:

When i dealt bats in the 1980s and 1990s, I recall seeing the Frank White smiley face bats a couple of times. I think Jim Gantner of Milwaukee sometines used a smiley face on his bat knobs as well.

Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

Final hat for now anyway. I think I saved the best for last too. This player spent nine years in the minors trying to get to the majors. When he finally arrived he get there with a bang. He became the first player in MLB history to hit five triples in his fist seven at bats. This is a 2013 Paulo Orlando Game used hat. This hat was from the first of two consecutive seasons where the Storm Chasers won the national championships. In 2015 Paulo bounced between AAA Storm Chasers and the Royals. He is a fan favorite for both teams.

Re: The Kansas City Royals game used thread

Another hat I picked up from the Storm Chasers store. This one I got mainly because of the personal significance I have with the player. This is a hat worn by catcher Micah Gibbs. Micah went between AA Northwestern Arkansas Naturals and AAA Omaha Storm Chasers in 2015. On September 6, 2015 he became the first position player in three years to pitch for the Storm Chasers. But that is not why the hat has so much personal significance to me. On August 1, 2015 the Omaha Storm Chasers had a turn-back-the-clock night where they wore the old Omaha Royals jerseys. They also conducted an auction during the game where the winners got the jersey off the players back. I won Micah's jersey that night. It was a hot and humid evening and being the catcher every thread of that jersey was soaked with sweat. He did not want to sign it because it may have bled out. So we agreed on a time and place to meet at the ballpark before the game the next day. I set the jersey out over night to dry and took it to the game the next day. Sure enough he was there and signed my jersey. I was also able to get a ball for my five year old son. Micah, your a class act in my book. Ill go more into the story when I post the pics of the jersey, but now I have a hat to go with the jersey. Here is the hat:
