On the short list of the greatest center fielders of all-time Hall of Famer Tris Speaker is widely considered to be one of the best all-around players at the bat and in the field. He was Major League Baseball’s all-time leader in doubles (792) and his 3,514 hits rank fifth all-time behind Pete Rose, Ty Cobb, Hank Aaron and Stan Musial. His .345 career batting average places him sixth in the pantheon of the game’s greatest hitters.
Presented is a rare single-signed Official American League William Harridge baseball signed by Speaker on the sweet spot. Speaker signed his name in blue pen on this slightly toned orb. The signature is stronger in “Tris” as “Speaker is light but still readable and the entire ball presents beautifully. The blue stampings are still solid and the red laces are still intact and in good condition. A truly wonderful single-signed baseball from one of the game’s best offensive players. This single-signed baseball comes with a LOA from PSA/DNA (AD08768).
