In 1998, the New York Yankees took a risk and signed Bernie Williams to a 7 year deal worth nearly 90 million dollars. The risk has paid off many times over. He has a great combination of power and speed and is a four-time Gold Glove winner. His offensive numbers get better every year, Bernie Williams is slowly becoming an MVP candidate. This batting helmet and pair of cleats were worn by Bernie Williams. The batting helmet was manufactured by the America Baseball Cap Co. of Media, Pa. The Yankee logo appears in white on the front of the helmet. The player number "51" appears in white on the front and back of the helmet. The inside of the helmet is fully padded and the helmet size tag reads "7 1/8 ". The black Nike "Zoom Air" cleats have the "swoosh" in white on both sides of each cleat. The player number "51" appears in white on the back of each cleat. The shoe size reads "11 ½". Both the helmet and cleats show game-use.
