Autographed Eddie Murray Apparent Home Run Baseball.
Lot 106. Autographed Eddie Murray Apparent Home Run Baseball. Murray’s signature on the sweet spot of this game-used OAL Bobby Brown baseball is an 8-9. It comes with a letter from veteran A.L. umpire Durwood Merrill attesting that it is “the actual ball hit by Eddie Murray for his 15th home run of the 1993 season.” On a side panel, Merrill wrote “1993 HR #15.” The only problem with all this is that Murray was in the National League in 1993. It appears that Merrill, who amassed a huge memorabilia collection in his 23 years as an umpire, simply assigned an incorrect date to an actual home run ball. At the very least, this is a nice vintage-signed game ball that was kept by an A.L. umpire who provided a letter stating that it is a Murray home run ball. – one of only 504! Merrill passed away in 2003. Authenticated by Kevin Keating.
Winning Bid $75.
