“Rawlings” manufactured OML Selig baseball. On the east panel is a “MLB” hologram with serial number “HZ 114998”. On the west panel is a “STEINER” hologram with serial number “212238”. On the north panel is a “JSA” sticker with serial number “Y52233”. This baseball was used by Yankees starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka during a June 28, 2014 game when the New York Yankees hosted the Boston Red Sox. Tanaka has signed the ball on the sweet spot in blue ballpoint pen with the added inscription “19”, in our opinion the signature rates an 8. The baseball shows excellent signs of game-use. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA.
