The 2003 World Series was the final time Randolph got to experience the Fall classic both as a player and as a coach.  The heavy favorite New York Yankees squared off against the young Florida Marlins.  The series went six games with Josh Beckett quieting the Yankees bats and the Marlins took the series in six games.  The Yankees arrived at the World Series on the dramatic ALCS clinching home run off the bat of Aaron Boone against the rival Boston Red Sox.

This lot includes three World Series Game balls each one with 32 signatures from the deep New York Yankees roster.  Signatures include Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Joe Torre, Mike Mussina, Roger Clemens, Jorge Posada, Aaron Boone, Bernie Williams, Andy Pettitte, Don Zimmer, David Wells, Hideki Matsui, Jason Giambi and several others.  The baseballs each come with MLB Authenticated holograms (MR392655, MR392664, and MR392656).   The MLB Authentication covers 26 of the 32 signatures with most of the coaching staff being added later.  The baseballs have some minor logos fading, with minor toning but for the most part have very legible signatures.  The baseballs will also be accompanied by a letter of authentication by Willie Randolph.
