Murray Wall 1957 Boston Red Sox game worn home jersey. Murray pitched for the Sox in 57 and 58. Had a solid year for them in 1958. Jersey is all original and came from the Johnny Pesky auction in Fenway. Murray committed suicide not too long after his career while living in Texas. Here it is.

Picked up a 1973-75 H&B Fred Kendall bat. Big Thank You to Tim at Hall of Fame Bats!

Appreciate the fact he actually took the time and found a bat off my want list sent to him over a year ago.

First Game of the Year, First Ball of the Year:

A line shot down the 3B line that ricocheted off the wall about 10 feet in front of me. Such baseballs are always a tough play since you can never predict just where the rebound is going to go. I stuck my mitt out and gloved it, but lost my balance and dropped it. I did get the ball thanks to a Cubs player who saw my valiant attempt to secure it. Kudos to him, but FIE on the nearby security guard, who refused to help me, although giving away a similar foul ball to another fan some 15 minutes later (apparently I wasn't young enough nor hot enough to be worthy of his time). And, yes, the ball is a Wrigley Field 100th Anniversary logo ball.

Snagged #1795 a few hours ago, down the RF foul line at Wrigley.

Also picked up via eBay a 2013 Cubs BP jersey worn by pitcher Pedro Strop, a set-up guy with a chance to get the closer's role in lieu of the performance meltdown by Jose Veras.

Giancarlo Stanton Game used from this year. Shows TONS of use and I'm pretty sure he used it to hit the monster 3 run homerun off strasburg last week.
