Hello all,

I found this glove at a store a few days ago and didn't pay too much attention to it. I saw that it was a Louisville SLugger and that it had a name written on it in ink (I know kids do this and have bought other gloves with names written on them before). I checked eBay to see if these gloves were selling for much, thinking that I might be able to buy it and then flip it.

When I went back to see if the glove was still at the store and to give it a good look, I found that not only did it have a name written in ink on it but also that same name, Steve Dixon, was sewn into it with red thread. I immediately knew that this might be more than just a regular glove.

I bought the glove and came home and found that Steve Dixon was a relief pitcher who played two years with the Cardinals in the early 1990's. I also found pictures of some of his ball gloves. In most of the pictures, the glove was black leather.

My glove is brown leather but the same type of glove, a G125 P4G.

So, if this is a game used glove how can I tell?
