Just a heads up. A great member on this site emailed me to show me a Matt Diaz Atlanta Braves 1974 Throwback jersey on eBay. I notified the seller as follows:
Did some quick research on your jersey. It was worn in 2004 and not 2006. The jersey was worn by catcher Johnny Estrada NOT Matt Diaz. The signature is by Estrada as well. Here's a match to the signature using an Upper Deck authentic autograph: (http://www.dacardworld.com/singles/2004-upper-deck-ud-diamond-pro-sigs-194-johnny-estrada-autograph)and (http://www.dacardworld.com/singles/2004-upper-deck-ud-diamond-pro-sigs-194-johnny-estrada-autograph%29and) getty images showing estrada wearing it for the 30th Anniversary (http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/catcher-johnny-estrada-of-the-atlanta-braves-swings-at-a-news-photo/50781198)
The seller was kind enough to provide the HoloGram number which says:

Just a heads up for anyone else looking as it already had 5 bids and I don't know if/what happens now as eBay will not allow changes to auctions with bids.
