I have a game used bat by Nomar in Game 5 of the 1999 ALCS against the Yankees. It has a crack over the "GENUINE" above Nomar's name and a minor crack on the handle. His number is on the knob of the bat. There are obvious ball marks on the barrel. How much do you think this would go for? I also have authentic MLB baseballs. One is signed by Mo Vaughn, Rico Petricelli, and a third name that I can't presently read/remember. The second is signed by Johnny Damon and Gabe Kapler. The balls are in the photo so if you can identify the names and/or give a price range for which I can sell them, I'd appreciate it.

That's Johnny Damon's signature.

The signature over Damon is either Gabe Kapler or Manny Ramirez. Sadly, it looks both and neither at the same time. Maybe Gabe Ramirez or Manny Kapler, were they on the roster that year? ;)

If you can post a better pic of the signature under Petrocelli I'm sure we can figure that one out too.

there's a better picture of it. considering the other ball and the bat, any idea how much each could be worth?

On second thought, maybe not. Rico was a frequent spring training visitor long after he retired. He could have signed that there during the 90s with Mo. I have no idea who the third signature is. Neither ball is particularly valuable. A few dollars maybe. The bat may bring a couple hundred, not really sure.

What proof do you have that the bat was used vs Yankees during playoffs? Any photo matches?

I'm pretty sure I have the stub somewhere. I was at the game and Nomar personally handed the bat to me.

Unless you can photo match the bat to the 99 ALCS it likely won't fetch any sort of premium. Nomar bats tend to sell in the 300-350 range.
