A fixture at shortstop for the New York Yankees for two decades, Derek Jeter put together one of his finest seasons in 2006. The Captain collected 214 hits for a .343 BA, scored 118 runs while driving in 97, hit 14 home runs and stole a career-high 34 stolen bases en route to his first silver slugger award, 3rd gold glove, and a tightly contested second place finish in the AL MVP race.
This baseball, game used on August 16, 2006 at Yankee Stadium, has been signed on the sweet spot in blue ink by Derek Jeter. The Baltimore Orioles won the game 3-2 as Jeter went hitless in four at-bats. The ball shows significant game use with the blue stampings worn and a black bat mark on the side panel. This game used and signed baseball has been tagged with MLB Authenticated hologram (BB 24643) for the game use and a Steiner hologram for the signature authentication.
