Hey all, I am pleased to finally post my lists of game used baseballs used in games. Later on I will make a sort-able list where you can see what was used for one game in comparison to full season for example. I also need to add the retail only balls, and prototypes/variations. It is still a work in progress, but this is the most complete list ever created. I will update this list as time goes on, and for anything I’ve missed.
As a courtesy to my hard work over years as well as many hours spent, AND me giving these lists out free of charge always and forever, I ask you don’t use post them anywhere, or use them in any books or articles. Basically, please do not just copy and paste my lists, please link and/or source this page instead! If you would like to use the lists in some other form, send me an email!
Please contact me at [email protected] with any questions, comments or concerns. I don’t bite, I promise.
