Show us items you had players inscribe as "game used"!

[metsbats]

Nowadays is easy to buy an item which is pre-inscribed as "game used" by a player. It's not always easy to get a player to inscribe a piece as game used after the fact years later.

Can you show us items which you presented to a player at a signing and got them to sign the item as "game used"?

I'll start with 4 bats that I was able to get done.

Here are a couple of mine:

1987 Dave Magadan road jersey

Two bases, two bats and a ball used in his 3000th hit game, all signed & notated by Cal Ripken Jr.:

When i had neftali feliz sign this jersey i asked him to sign it game used, and he gave me a blank stair. Nelson Cruz whispered in his ear in spanish the letters for game used and he smiled and wrote them down.

That reminds me when I met Feliz while he was pitching in single A. Waited around after the game and got his autograph, asked him to sign a ball on the sweet spot and he starts on the side and then stops and gives me the same blank stare. Need to find the picture of him and I, not sure he knew what was going on when I asked to get my picture with him.

Roy Miller-Tampa Bay Bucs
He looked at it for about 5 minutes and kept saying "this is it, this is it". I got it through NFL auctions so I knew it was legit but he verified that it was definitely his jersey from that game.

Here are a few 49er shirts that were all inscribed as "game worn" When John Taylor inscribed his shirt, he was quite pleased that someone had his gamer. The only athlete that wouldnt inscribe his shirt as game used was Rickey Jackson-he wrote HOF 2010. I have a number of other shirts that i recently and not so recent ly got signed as "game worn" and will post those as well.

This is a bat that Devin Mesoraco signed for my son for his 10th birthday (which is TODAY). He signed it ..." To Leaton - My 2010 Game Used Bat - Devin Mesoraco #36 - Happy Birthday Bro !!" I thought ot was very cool of him, to say the least.

Some Ashley Leile gamers obtained directly from him and all inscribed as "game used". The 49ers and Raiders shirts were obtained directly from Ashely but the Broncos shirt was obtained from GUU member rather randomly. When Leile signed the Broncos shirt he was quite surprised that it had not been washed.

He also said that it was tough for the players to keep their shirts and that he did something nice for the 49ers secretary thus he was able to keep one of his.

I had this Fred Lynn Helmet signed this weekend. They had the entire 1975 World Series Team in town and as I understand, this was the only item at the signing that a player signed "Game Used". It is a pretty close match to the helmet that Lynn wore on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1975.

I got these signed this evening.

Ed signed one as a gamer and the other as not his bat.

[Fnazxc0114]

That was done at hamiltons first signing as a rangers.
