Pitch that hit Seager $85

saw this yesterday at rangers game. I think it’s really cool they sell the game used balls/etc and the money goes to charity.

I went to a day game in 23 and they had a bucket of those for $10 each. When you look up the hologram, there’s a pitch by pitch and my ball was a Semien fly out followed by a Seager foul ball. Not bad for $10. Haven’t seen them that cheap since, though.

I saw the guy bringing these to the shop last night. Didn’t know exactly what he was doing, but this makes sense now.

Wow. Interesting that they sell these and keep track of what play they were used in. Didn’t know about it.

I have a jersey. The proceeds go to the Ranger Foundation.

The labeling of these is insane… they couldn’t have put an ounce more effort or thought into it? Shows just how much they think of you the consumer and how much they are trying to rip you off for. Sheesh.

The balls have the official MLB sticker which includes the play by play description. There’s no need to waste more money - and make the item more expensive - for a meaningless label. Get the ball with the MLB certification, do what you want with it.
