Rocket Roger Clemens signed 20 strikeout game tickets
I recently picked up a signed full ticket to Rocket Roger Clemens' 1st 20 strikeout game on April 29, 1986. In this game Clemens became the first player to fan 20 in a 9 inning game surpassing Nolan Ryan's 19 K AL record set in 1974. In 1996, 10 years later, Clemens duplicated the feat becoming the only pitcher to strike out 20 twice in a ML career. Only Tom Cheney (21 K's in 15 innings), Kerry Wood and HOF Randy Johnson have also struck out 20 or more in a ML game.
This ticket matches up well with the signed full ticket that I own from Roger's 2nd 20 K game in 1996 @ DET.
