I landed career #1710 las night at the Sox game, a Tigers BP ball (once a game ball). There was no BP but there were a limited group of on-field warmups, and I got it there. The Tigers are apparently pacing a black dot in marker on the sweet spot for ID purposes.
Picked up a game used baseball from today's game in which Ichiro got his 4,256th and 4,257th professional hits. Not much to choose from. I got the only baseball offered at the kiosk a Matt Kemp double
Tulane wore one-off digital camouflage jerseys and hats for Military Appreciation Night back in May. I picked up one of the jerseys through the athletic department's auction site.
We must be one of the only Division I schools that wears Rawlings. All our other sports wear Nike, and that contract was renewed last year if I remember correctly.
University of Virginia also wears Rawlings still I believe

Just got home from Pittsburgh, where I picked up a Matt Holliday hit baseball from Opening Day 2016. The fourth-inning single was the Cardinals first hit of the season.
Before I left town, I also acquired a 2002 Woody Williams home jersey.
I corraled career baseball #1809 (season #2) at tonight's White Sox-Royals game in a most unusual way. Royals BP produced only one ball within my reach, and my cane, which I use to reach baseballs I can't get my mitt on, stuck in the seat, costing me a chance at it. I went to go sit in the seat I usually occupy by the Sox bullpen, but, just before the game started, the ticketholders showed up, and I had to move. I went up about 7 rows, strolled towards the far end of the row, only to look down in a seat about 5 or 6 from the end, and see a BP baseball that no one spotted during or after BP wedged in the bottom of the seat. I've found baseballs wedged in seats at the Cell before...heck, when a Brewers BP got rained out just after the game opened one day in the 1990s, I searched a section's worth of seats and found 6 total from White Sox BP...but I've never found one before this close to game time.
2004 Jim Edmonds Game Used Bat. Edmonds bats are really tough to find, as Jim didn't give many bats away. This one shows perfect characteristics including heavy use and his well-known spiral tape.
