Re: June 2014 "Pick-Ups" Thread

It's been a while since I've picked anything up, I just bought my first house so game used collecting had to take a backseat.

That being said, when these came up on MLB Auctions, I had to treat myself

Travis Snider game used Mother's Day cleats! My first Mother's Day item, and my seventh pair of Snider cleats

Congratulations on the new home, Pam, and those are some cool cleats. Does UA only make the color pattern for MLB Mother's Day?

Congrats on the new home Pam!

I know you're partial to Travis but the Mother's Day cleat selection in the MLB Auction was great this year, so many different styles and designs! UA did a great job with that look. I was able to get the Adam Jones Mother's Day Nikes.

Ben-

It looks like you bought a clump of pine tar with a bat accidentally stuck to it!

Seriously, awesome pickup...

Ben-

Congrats. That bat is beautiful!!! Carlos Delgado once said he liked pine tar on his bats because it made them smell like a "christmas tree." I love that quote.

Picked up some Yadier Molina stuff. Used batting gloves, road pants from 2010, top bat is dated July 2013, the maroon handle bat is dated 10-18-13! Gonna have to look at some MLBtv on that one. The bottom bat is a rookie bat from 04/05 with #41 on the knob. The Grail is the glove. I think it's also from 2010. Gonna post some questions for the glove experts out there to nail it down. I've only seen one other Molina glove ever and it just sold in Paragon. This one is hammered and still has a faint oil smell.

Wow! That mitt is awesome. Great pickup, Jason!

Here is another Dunn from his reds days. This bat is absolutly This is the first one I have picked up with a tape job on the handle. Has anyone else seen one?

Re: June 2014 "Pick-Ups" Thread

Helf, great looking Dunn bat! He seemed to do that for a good period of time while with the Reds. I have a bat just like that, with the built up knob and tape as well.

Again, awesome Dunner. Looking forward to him joining the #500 club.
