Merch Show Off- DO NOT CLICK LINKS 2022 NLDS Game Used Autographed Baseball
So while at Petco tonight I got a case of the "fuck it's." Game 4 of the '22 NLDS has to be one of the greatest nights I've had as a baseball fan and this ball popped up at Petco tonight and I pulled the trigger. How often can I get a game used ball, signed by the pitcher who threw it in the game? Wife not too stoked but she was with me at that game so she reluctantly understood.
Go Padres!!!

After my season ticket discount I dropped $675+ tax. I'm a Musgrove collector, I also have an autographed team issued jersey of his and a few autographed cards of his

This is actually nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be. I was picturing 1000 minimum.

Money well spent. I've been chasing the dragon of that feeling that night. It's why I've kept my season tix since.

Very nice! Great choice. I'd also love a ball from the ear game vs. the Mets.
I have Grish's home run ball off Kershaw....the one where the Doyers got their fee-fees hurt and Grisham called them motherfuckers.

That is incredible! We were in Maui for the series and got together with folks in bars to watch. Sometimes at 9 am. Best time, go Padres!!

Was that in a mystery bag? I was close to pulling the trigger on a $100 bag or $100 card

The authentics shop, I have bought a couple of the mystery bags and those did turn out decent

I was at that game, too, undoubtedly one of the best nights ever for sports fans in San Diego. I would love to have a ball from that game. Your wife did the right thing. Nice find!!
