2010 Carpenter Game Issue

[astros5.7]

Picked up some Lance Berkman items. 2010 pinstripe jersey photo matched to the first half of the season. Helmet photo matched to the 2007 season. A bat photo matched to both games of a double header on April 13, 2006. In the second game of the double header he hit a home run from both sides of the plate for the first time in his career. Bat is also photo matched to a game on April 10, 2006 in which he had a home run.

[project 4]

Very nice Big Puma pickup!

[gameused]

I picked up this Albert Pujols Sam bat from a Cardinals fan that was handed the bat directly from Pujols after he cracked it during a game vs the Rockies in 2007 at Colorado.

The seller decided to part with the bat after Pujols signed with the Angels. I was skeptical at first, but when he explained how he got the bat and after I spoke with him for a while, he won me over.

Thanks,

This made my day.....I just photo matched the Pujols Sam bat to two seperate getty image photos.

On May 6, 2007 Pujols used the bat against the Houston Astros and on May 28, 2007 vs. Colorado Rockies. This must be the same Rockies game where Pujols handed the bat to the original owner.

Worn vs Giants 12/24/11

[Drasher99]

Found the Holy Grail for my Scranton Wilkes Barre Yankees collection. I picked up a player issue International League Champions ring. This basically fell into my lap for a fantastic price. Living near the stadium I go to a ton of games and have alot of connections to get me equipment from the team but never thought I would get one of these. It is sitting on the brim of a hat that was Butch Wynegars.

Was recently going to leave the hobby but after realizing I couldn't find it in me to sell off my Cano bats I decided to sell everything in my collection and just stick to GU bats.
With that said, I've added a few Cano bats since.
This bat photomatched to 2009 ALDS series with Bobby's help.

Derek Jeter 1996 Rookie bat

A big thank you to friend and fellow forum member Steve Masi (masimen) for helping me in acquiring this great item for my collection. I had been looking for a block letter Jeter bat for awhile and Steve had kept that in mind and found this bat thru his contacts. It has a nice letter of provenance that relates it's acquisition specifically to '96, his rookie year and WS Champs year.

Game used Bowa Jersey

That doesn't appear to be a genuine game used Phillie jersey (Bowa or otherwise)..

You may want to try to get your money back..

Sorry

Can You give your basis? I appreciate the honesty to the owner of this item (and I hope you dont think the same about my Cabrera Phoenix), but the primary reason I joined GUU is to further educate myself on the hobby and would value your insight. Thank you.

[cliffjmp33]

Picked up a game-ready/issued '08 World Series baseball.

I am at a lull in my collecting it seems though. Have acquired the few items I really wanted and couldn't be happier, just nothing out there now seems to really get me excited. At least that is good news to my wallet!

For starters, the font of the NOB and number are not even close to what the Phillies used on any of their road knits during Bowa's career in Philadelphia.

A bit off topic, but I couldn't find an answer using search....

Do the diamondbacks have any team specific tagging on jerseys? As in, a year or set tag? I have the opportunity to pick up a diamondbacks jersey that looks ok and has a 6300 code on the wash tag, but wanted to double check for team tagging as some teams do use their own tagging. Thanks

The archives of GUU Experts' Corner of articles should have an article by Rob Steinmetz from several years ago regarding tagging on some Arizona gamers he got from the team. Then (and pretty much the norm now), a strip tag is featued in the collar with the year and an inventory number (i.e., "2008 152".)

[sox83cubs84]

n interior tag reading "6300" has about a 98% likelihood of being a retail jersey, and not a team item.

Well I am new here and this is my first post. I had this jersey reserved since the first day they put them up for sale months ago. Yes they are ugly jerseys but thats almost what I love about it and also they only wore 1 third jersey all year. So as of now this is the only Hamonic game used third jersey around..

Derek Jeter 2009 bat - ALCS and World Series used

Nice overall use, especially heavy all over the barrel with tons of ball and stitch marks, along with thick mota coating on the handle. It is photo matched to use in Game 6 of the 2009 ALCS vs. the Angels and then used in Game 1 of the World Series vs. the Phils where Jeter had 3 hits in the first WS game at the new Yankee Stadium.

Did some photos for a guy I've kinda become friends (DRC) w/ and one of his celebrity basketball teammates, and got a couple game worn jerseys from his event.

Blue - Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (put on the event in Nashville at his alma mater)

Red- Jacoby Jones

All in all a great event and got some good autographs too - didn't get the game jerseys signed as you can tell b/c 1. they were kinda sweaty and 2. there really isn't a good place to get them signed b/c the numbers probably wouldn't hold the signature even if dry, so these will likely stay unsigned.

Picked up this beauty at the Cardinals Authentic Store yesterday. The Cardinals wore these uniforms in honor of the St. Louis Stars in Pittsburgh last season. They only ordered one set and the players got to keep them but the Authentic shop was selling the extras. This one was made for Eduardo Sanchez who was on the DL at the time.

My Mom bought me this Justin Smoak 2011 game used teal alternate jersey. It was certified as used on June 3, which makes this a HR jersey. The autograph is also MLB authenticated. The jersey may not show much use, but that's just fine with me. It goes well with my collection.

I've been looking for this style of Smoak jersey for the entirety of last baseball season, so I'm glad to have it finally in my possession. I love the Dave Niehaus memorial patch, and I'm looking for a home white Smoak from '11 to complete my 2011 collection of Justin's items.

Thanks, Ryan. I am very partial to the teal alternate jerseys and have been waiting for a while to pick up a Smoak. There was one on MLB.com Auctions last May, but it was ridiculously expensive. So I'm very happy with my acquisition.

I don't think there are any 2011 League teal alternates left. But maybe you'll be able to track one down somewhere. :)

I picked the right week to attend the local flea market early... nabbed this 1967 Lou Brock bat. Can be pinpointed to one order of six bats on 3/29/67. Unusual Brock bat in that it's a C12L (thick handled bat preferred by Nellie Fox) with a large knob, 36" long and 35 ounces. Faded 20 on the knob. Perfect fit for my '67 Cardinals collection. Now if I could find a Maris and a Flood...

Jose Altuve 2012 Game Used TBTC "Smoking Pistol" Colt 45s Jersey

The jersey was worn and authenticated to 4/10/2012 (50th Anniversary of 1st Game in Houston History) and 4/20/2012 (Flashback Fridays). The jersey remains unwashed after the 4/20/2012 game. Also included are:

1. Colt 45s TBTC Hat (MLB Authenticated)
2. Colt 45s TBTC Helmet (MLB Authenticated)
3. Colt 45s TBTC Stirrups (Washed, unknown player, one of only a few pairs worn by players)
4. MLB Authenticated Single from Bottom of 3rd Inning (Jose tried to strecth the single into a double and was thrown out on a head first slide . . . hence the dirty jersey)
5. MLB Authenticated Bat from the 4/20/2012 game (cracked the next day 4/21).

As many know, these TBTC jerseys became very controversial. After the team designed the jerseys, MLB told the Astros they could not include the Pistol. After some discussion, it was decidee the Astros were allowed to make the decision. Fan feedback was unanimous and the Astros decided (correctly by the way) to preserve history and keep the jerseys original to 1962-1964. Hats off to the Astros and Mike Acosta for working so hard on this design and making the tribute possible!

It is a first I believe! The Astros have also added "2012" flag tags to the inside seam tagging on all 2012 jerseys.

Bat is also photo matched to a game on April 10, 2006 in which he had a home run.
