In light of Shoeless Moe's very cool World Series baseball find, I thought I'd start this thread. Here are a couple of mine --
The Navin Field ball is from July 13, 1934 -- Babe Ruth hit a home run that day, and of course it's also a game ball from the Lou Gehrig Streak. I bought the foul balls from the family of a gentleman who had season tickets at Municipal Stadium in Cleveland. His seats were down the foul line in the first row, so he was able to snag many ground ball foul balls. Greghttp://www.baseballbasement.com |

Hey Greg,
Not for nothing, but the home run that Ruth hit that day, wasn't it his 700th? Or am I getting the dates confused? Graig

Wow Craig, that's one more thing that's great about this site -- I only looked up the box score and saw that it was Ruth's 14th of the season -- never considered that it might have been number 700. Just did a quick check and you are absolutely correct Craig.
Thank you very much for the info! Greghttp://www.baseballbasement.com |

Randall -- I absolutely love that Bob Feller pitched ball.
I also have a Dale Long foul ball from later in that same 1956 season. Greg |

Brock, I know you like this one, thought I'd add it to this thread for fun. Here's Hank Severeid's first career HR ball. Hit off of "Hi" jasper of the White Sox April 17th 1915.
