2013 Miguel Cabrera MVP Season GU Home Run Home Jersey. Used April 25-May 10. Used during 3 Home Runs.

I picked this one up earlier in the week. It was last used and authenticated to May 10 - when he hit his 328th Career Home Run - but it has been photomatched starting with April 25. He wore this jersey April 25,26,28,29,30, May 1, and then again on May 10 on the first game of the new home stand. I didn't like the heinous thread pull until it started popping up in pictures/video!

He hit HR #324 on April 28 and HR # 325 on April 30.



April 28 - HR #324


April 30 - HR #325

Sweet pickup!

I've had the Braun for awhile now. I just ran into the Fielder at Miller Park this last weekend. Thought it would be a good match. Both are from the 3rd game of the NLDS in Airzona in 2011 (10/4/11)

Jerseys from this game were covertly marked - washed - then the "GV" patch was added. Brewers were not wearing this patch during this game. But they added them after the fact. I would rather have the jersey as it was during the game. Just a heads up if anyone else runs across a jersey from this day and is wondering...

Nice pickup Tony!!!

Joel,

Thanks! I've always wanted an early pair of Arod Rawlings Batting Gloves and wristbands. Funny thing about collecting. Now that I have what I picked up, I now want to find one of each version Arod also had white Rawlings Batting Gloves and also different colors of the same wristbands. I have the blue pair Rawlings wristband, and now want to find this red version. I find sometimes that once I have one of something, I want all versions. I'm now on a new mission!

The Cardinals Authentics Store had a table full of batting helmets for sale tonight. Picked up two pretty nice ones for $45 a piece.

Rafael Furcal home S100 Pro Comp authenticated as game-used on July 8, 2012. I was nicely surprised when I got home and learned that he got the walk off hit in this game, and when you watch the video you can clearly see that he was wearing this helmet when he got the hit (Look at the chipped out portion of the bill).

Also picked up Trevor Rosenthal's postseason road helmet from his rookie season in 2012.

$45! I was there last night and they were $50! I almost bought the Furcal and must've missed the Rosey! For some reason I was thinking he was 62 that year. Crap! Nice find. I was excited to see the road hats for $35 and grabbed 3 and 53....Beltran/Adams......until I checked the auth and it was Lugo/Iszturas from 2010......they are still available as you can imagine.

They were $50. I have a season ticket discount card that gives me 10% off.

The past couple of times I have been in the store that table has been there. Each time it seems to have a new assortment of caps and helmets. Mostly no-names though.
