This MLB baseball is hand signed by Berra as well as Don Larsen, this baseball has also been inscribed with the Perfect Game date from the World Series (the only perfect game in World Series history) on the sweet spot, in blue ink. It comes complete with a Steiner Sports Certificate of Authenticity.
