(LOT 692)
Three Autographed Single Signed Yankee Replica Jerseys with Betances, Rizzuto and Jackson PSA/DNA Pre-Certified

The hard-throwing 6'8" Dellin Betances has been one of baseball's most imposing middle-relievers over the past four seasons. Posting an incredible 531 strikeouts in only 328 innings (a staggering 14.6 K's per Nine Innings), his upper 90's fastball and "nose to toes" curve has overmatched helpless hitters in a manner rarely seen in baseball history. No wonder Yankee enthusiasts seek his autographed collectibles with this highly coveted replica home pinstripe jersey boldly signed by the Yankee fireballer in silver sharpie on the #8 of his "68" backside jersey number. Certified authentic by the renowned Steiner Co. as well as Pre-Certified by PSA/DNA, it would make a fine addition to any sophisticated new York Yankee gathering! Along with Derek Jeter, legendary shortstop Phil "The Scooter" Rizzuto remains one of the two greatest shortstops in New York Yankee history. While Jeter is a sure Hall of Famer, at this time, Rizzuto stands as the SOLE Yankee shortstop to ever be enshrined in Cooperstown, New York.

His slick-fielding ability places him as one of baseball's finest fielding shortstops, and along with DiMaggio and Berra, he was one of the Yankee mainstays that led them to five consecutive championships from 1949 – 1953. A lifetime .273 hitter, Rizzuto's greatest season was in 1950 when he batted a stellar .324, eventually claiming the American League MVP, something Derek Jeter never accomplished. As a testament to his unbridled Yankee legacy, presented here is a Mitchell & Ness Cooperstown Collection replica #10 Rizzuto jersey (Medium size) signed by the "Scooter" himself beneath the front side classic Yankee "NY" emblem. Signed in fine blue sharpie and presenting itself in "8/9" strength, Rizzuto also added a "HOF 94" inscription beneath his hallowed name.

A superb Phil Rizzuto collectible, it conjures up memories of his uncanny ability to scoop up ground balls and turn double plays in a manner seldom seen by most shortstops who ever played the game! – PSA/DNA Pre-Certified. Who could ever forget when Reggie Jackson walloped 3 home runs in game #6 of the 1977 World Series to send the Dodgers packing and clinch the Yankee's Championship. Indeed, Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson rightfully earned his "Mr. October" nickname due to his incredible ability to produce timely hits in the most crucial post-season games. His 563 Home Runs and 1,702 R.B.I.'s, and .490 slugging percentage easily substantiate his eternal stature in Cooperstown, New York. He is one of six players who have hit 10 or more home runs in the World Series and tallied a sensational 18 post-season lifetime round-trippers, claiming an A.L.MVP award in 1973 and being a member of 14 A.L. All-Star teams.

Therefore, it is no surprise his collectibles are actively sought after, substantiating why this autographed MLB Rawlings replica #44 Yankees Road jersey suffices as an outstanding keepsake. "Reggie Jackson" has been neatly inscribed in fine blue sharpie beneath the "NEW YORK" stitching on the uniform's left side, with an elaborate "44" inscription directly beneath his immortal name. The Rawlings MLB label is situated in its customary lower left position, and the inside neckline includes an additional Rawlings label, with both labels depicting the 44-jersey size. The reverse side reflects the classic "44" Jackson number, with the entire gray knit jersey revealing no obtrusive flaws, whatsoever. An outstanding Reggie Jackson memento, it reminds us of everything this magnificent slugger represented in the batter box, especially when Mr. October strolled to the plate with all of the chips on the line! - PSA/DNA Pre-Certified & Score Board LOA
