Nate, that's an awesome Murray bat. I believe he is the greatest switch hitter of all time. I'm sure Mrs. Murray enjoys Eddie's knobs as well

Took a ride to the Jersey shore today.

1941 Playball pinball head. Wish it was all there but this will be repurposed for a bar also a 1908 trophy 10 1/2" by. 9" both bats have rings. From a. Delaware Catholic Church league. And the last one a Baltimore Babe statue. This was made by Susan Luery in 1993 as her first shot at getting the honor of designing the statue for Camden Yards. This design was turned down so she made 30 bronze statue that sold for $3500 and also a molded urethane edition of 2000 for $300.00 the bronzes only sold under 20 and the resin ones didn't do much better and stopped production under 100, this is number 8 of the resin. It is 23" high on a 7 x 15 oak base

Proudest "pickup" ever! My wife Katie and I welcomed our first child, daughter Millie Juniper to our little family this last Sunday, Jan 11 @ 6:45 am. Mom and babe are doing great and Dad is dreaming about their first ball game together!

Indeed he does. I have other Murray knobs in the closet if you guys want me to pull them out and take pictures.

Forgive me, since I posted this on the championship ring section, but in case you have not visited over there, I picked up a player's World Series 1996 ring.

Only players received rings with a large center diamond. Almost all rings sold from 1996 have been the front office version without the large center diamond.

Bench coach Don Zimmer was incensed when he received his ring and it did contain the large diamond.

He never forgave George Steinbrenner for that.
