This offered Official Major League Robert D. Manfred, Jr. stamped baseball was used during the May 14, 2017 game between the Detroit Tigers and Los Angeles Angels. This ball was used to plunk 3-time AL MVP Mike Trout as he was hit by a pitch thrown by Tigers’ pitcher Justin Verlander in the bottom of the third inning. This special ball was used during the Mother’s Day game and all of the stampings are in pink, along with the laces. This ball displays outstanding game use and comes with an MLB Authenticated hologram (JC301714), which authenticates that this is the ball used during Mike Trout’s plate appearance in the bottom of the third inning of the May 14, 2017 game in which he was hit the pitch.
