signed ticket to September 3rd 1975, The best arm I've ever seen in Baseball Ellis Valentine has his MLB DEBUT, he wasted no time showing off his arm with 2 outfield assists , in the 5th inning on a flyball to RF by Larry Bowa he threw out Dave Cash coming back to 1st base to complete the double play , then in the 8th inning he threw out Larry Bowa at home plate and if that is not enough he prevented Garry Maddox, the husband of his high-school counselor, from hitting an inside-the-park home run. With one out and two on in the Phillies’ third, Maddox hit a liner that got by Expos center fielder Pepe Mangual for a triple. A reporter asked Maddox if he thought of circling the bases.“Yeah, I did,” he said. “But (Valentine) did a good job of running it down and he can throw. Funny thing is my wife used to counsel him when he was in high school

Lelands, REA, Goldin, Heritage, and Hunt all do well with tickets. You might want to research what one of these did at one of those auction houses to give you a better idea.

May 3, 1964 Sadaharu Oh becomes the first and ONLY player to hit 4 HRs in a game in Japan. This is the only graded example. It is in Goldins Elite Auction ending in a week...

Please let us know what you ended up going with. Also curious to know what level you had to pay, wherever you ended up going with. I have a ticket from the same game, though in a bit lesser condition.

It's amazing to me how well tickets from Jackie Robinson's rookie year are selling lately. Non-milestone games....WOW!

This was my only ticket pickup at this years National. This 1971 All Star Game ticket has long been on my want list. The fact that Reggie took my man Dock Ellis deep connects it to my 1971 Bucs obsession. This was also Clemente’s last All Star Game appearance. When I asked Reggie to sign the ticket I asked him to inscribe it “Off the Roof!” As that was Curt Gowdy’s famous call. Reggie smiled and said, “Gowdy was wrong on that call. That ball was over the roof! Do you mind if I correct him and sign it that way?” Who the hell am I to disagree with Mr. October?

[Batman]

Great story. Gowdy called it as "off the transformer" light tower. Video isnt good enough to verify. I was 11 eating a bag of cheese popcorn and drinking a coke after I got the bottle cap with Tony Oliva off it, about 2 feet from a black and white TV.

[71buc]

Thanks Batman! Why does that sound so campy LOL! Here’s a recent addition to my Stargell memorable moments ticket collection. May 8, 1973, Pops literally goes yard at Dodger Stadium. It was his second homer of his career to land in the parking lot. He is the only man to do it twice.

After witnessing Stargell’s Los Angeles blast Hall of Fame pitcher Don Sutton said, “I never saw anything like it. He doesn't just hit pitchers, he takes away their dignity.”

John, fantastic example!

LOL...I was 11 also. Gowdy actually said "off the roof" first and quickly said it's off the transformer shortly after. Not everyone knows that Reggie actually hit it over the roof and out of the stadium later when he was with the Angels. The man had some power. Darn, now I need to get my ticket stub signed.

[Vintagedeputy]

Online auction find. ‘89 ASG

Bo hit a monster HR to center.

[guy3050]

Dan Smith, Not a household name, but he did give up Tony Gwynn's 3000th hit

1908 York Beach Maine Ticket/Pass.

York beach only existed for one 25 game partial season in the 1908 class D Maine State League. The back has some identification that I can't make out.
Can't imagine too many of these are kicking around.

3/22/14 - First MLB regular season game in Australia. Kershaw shines in the season opener on his way to a third Cy Young. Never seen this ticket before and was thrilled to grab it.

Very cool, Dewey! Nice pickup.

[Mark]

Recently, when going through some old boxes back home, I came across these stubs. Brings back some great memories.

[71buc]

Mark, if July 10th is available I’m a buyer.

[mcgwirecom]

One of the earliest Mantle HRs you will find.

[Vintagedeputy]

An antique store rescue from today, a ticket from the 1983 ALCS, game 2.

Mike Boddicker strikes out 14 Chicago White Sox enroute to a 4-0 shutout.

[doug.goodman]

6' 7" 282 lb Aaron Judge just had his first career 3 HR game, which gives him a total of 247 career homers.

5'9" 180 lb Mookie Betts has now been tied by Judge for career homers.

Judge has some work to do to catch Betts in the 3 HR game count, as Betts along with Johnny Mize and Sammy Sosa each have 6 games with a trio of homers.

Here are tickets for four of Mookie's 3 HR games

[Vintagedeputy]

Another online auction find. Not sure why tickets are coming out of the woodwork all of a sudden.

Reds would win this one 6-3 on homers by Billy Hatcher and Mariano Duncan off of Zane Smith.

Just one more stop along the way to the Reds 1990 World Series Championship.

[guy3050]

Got these signed last week at a charity softball game, Dave Palmer's 5 inning perfect game and Otis Nixon 6 stolen bases game

[jjbond]

I just started a collection of Sadaharu Oh home run tickets (#795 is below), and I also stumbled across this perfect game ticket from 1961.
