game used ball from a game

bongo870 · Jan 14, 2013

I never got one before but i see that Phillies.com sells the game used ball/foul balls. I see someone has a Ryan Howard foul ball too certified by Phillies that it is real. I may go for it but it is around 32 bucks now. Does anyone get these? I thought it would go well with my auto bat and maybe in the furture have him auto it...

The royals team store sells game used balls. I caught the two in my avatar at a royals vs Cleveland game last Spring. Both were hit by kipnis from Cleveland. Same at bat

sweet grabs but i have not got one at a game yet :-(

It had been a while since I had. Where we sit it has to be a popup behind home plate so to get two was pretty lucky.

I bought a ball that Glen Perkins held for a few minutes, then he signed it.

Actually, he pitched it to some people as well.

The Blue Jays also sell game-used balls at the team shop at Rogers Centre. Last season I think they were around $30 and were MLB authenticated. The certificate would indicate the game date, inning, pitcher and batter, and what happened (e.g. 4th pitch of AB, fouled into the dirt). Kind of cool memorabilia if you collect one of the players mentioned.

Twins do that all the time at their Pro Shops. I have a ball that Brian Dinkelman hit a single with (thanks to Musial Collector wwho picked it up for me)

The Twins sell game used balls at Target field during the game. They have a stand on the concourse in right-center where you sign up before the 5th inning (IIRC). I believe they were charging $30 and the balls come from the game you are attending.

Any chance at all you would sell those? I'm a huge Indians fan and I would love to add those to my collection. Plus I could give one of them to my little brother who is a huge Kipnis fan.

If you guys ever have the time, you should check the play-by-plays for your GU baseballs. The authentication # is just assigned to the play that happened before the ball was retired. Sometimes you can draw some lines to other plays that the ball was involved in.

I don't remember the exact information I had, but the aforementioned Glen Perkins baseball could have been hit by a couple decent players.

We have a local minor league team here and the fouls are easy to get and have signed after game .

Can you point me in the direction of the non-redundancy dept?

To the OP, I only have a one game used ball that Andruw hit and I wouldn't have gone after it except he hit a HR in the same game. I know it's very likely I won't ever get a HR ball so I was alright getting one that was mlb authenticated from the same game. I overpaid though...guy I bought it from included the reciept from the team store...no wonder some people file item not described....

The Twins sell a wide range of game used balls in their pro shop. I bought a game used Eric Hosmer baseball which he hit for a double in his rookie season (MLB authenticated) for $50.

He's just razzing you...because of course a game used ball would be from a game.

Like saying, "Atlanta Braves from Atlanta."
