Here are a couple of recent ticket stub pickups:
One is the less sexy and much less expensive Roberto Clemente milestone hit ticket...career hit #2,000. His 3-run HR also gave Clemente 100 RBI's for the first time in his career. I also found this AP photo of Clemente from the game.
I found it interesting that the PSA authentication doesn't even mention the 2,000th hit.
The other is a Satchel Paige MLB rookie year win ticket. Paige threw his second consecutive shutout for career win #5 before the largest crowd ever to see a night game up to that point.
