Jose Canseco has made headlines for both in the twenty five plus years since his big league debut, one of the most controversial and polarizing figures in the history of Major League Baseball. Take home a piece of history with this game worn Jose Canseco pinstriped jersey from his brief 2000 stint with the World Series Champion New York Yankees. Making just one appearance in the famed Subway Series, this is the very shirt off Canseco’s back, adorned with the slugger’s autograph and hand signed inscriptions “33″ and “2000 WSC.” This was the second of Canseco’s World Series rings, winning with the Athletics in the 1989 season.

Jon Lester Autographed Game Used Baseball
Buy it now price: 129.00Go to auction: Click HereAuction ends: September 10, 2010Red Sox ace Jon Lester is one of the most inspiring stories in the already storied history of Red Sox baseball. This game used ball comes from his September, 13, 2009 start against the Tampa Bay Rays during which Lester delivered an inspired pitching performance in its own right. Cruising to 8 shutout innings, Lester extended his scoreless innings streak to 15, having gone 7 rounds in a zero run effort against the Cubs in his previous start. Lester picked up the win on both occasions, running his record to 13-7 through that point in the season, and lowering his already solid Earned Run Average to an exemplary 3.27. Lester issued only 2 hits to Rays hitters while striking out 7 and giving 3 a free pass. The ball itself has been DNA-authenticated by the Professional Sports Authenticator service, guaranteeing it was indeed used in this exact game and validating Jon Lester’s signature. A corresponding PSA/DNA sticker and certificate will be issued to the high-bidder along with the game ball, in order to verify this claim. Read the rest of this entry »
