It seems as if they Yankees authenticator does things differently than most.

But WHEN is the invisible marker daub placed? As they leave the field of play? In the locker room?

Unless they tag it AFTER seeing the item on the field of play and before it leaves their sight, it still leaves open the question of reliability.
