Hi all!

So I am so happy I managed to find a game used ball that was not only MLB authenticated to a Billy hamilton stolen base, but also photomatched! I know that photomatching baseballs can be hard, but I managed to get lucky here! So the MLb authentication detail is: EK 806434 and states:
68374

But I found the image below and was able to match the ball as it has a distinctive mark. See below:

What are your thoughts?! :)

I don't collect baseball, but I can appreciate how difficult a task this must be. Looks pretty good, congrats!

Thanks guys! I've been lucky with a couple of BHam items and have been able to photomatch them. I'll try to hold on to them! It def keeps the hobby interesting! :) love players with Speed!

Nice job! Looks like a solid match and MLB authentication seals the deal.

Some nice B Ham items being posted in here of late. Awa with his helmet and now a baseball from one of his steals.

Nice job Brian. This is the first time ever someone was able to photo match a ball!
