Bobbleheads

Bobbleheads are one of the most loved collectibles on the market. You can get them free with you attend a baseball or you can buy them online. Bobbleheads go back as far as the 1960s when Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle had their own ceramic statues. Now, bobbleheads are made of a sturdy plastic. In 2015, after Mike Trout won the MVP award in 2014, the Angels made a lifesize bobblehead of him. It is currently the largest licensed MLB bobblehead to date. In second is the Derek Jeter bobblehead that stands outside Steiner Sports at the New Yankee Stadium. Overall, bobbleheads are a great and fun tradition of baseball.

 

Mark Teixeira Topps Now 2

Remember my previous posts about Mark Teixeira? And the card? If not, click here. Anyways, Mark Teixeira hit a walk off grand slam about a week ago. Topps made and card off it. It showed Mark with his hands up and has a description about the game. I bought the card along with 322 other fans. Sadly, this card is no longer in print. So see the card, click here.

Citi Field Update

On August second, I came home from a game on August first. It was great. It went into extra innings, I took tons of pictures, captured a very weird video of a Ford mascot race thing (it will be posted later in the week in a new category), and even snagged a ball.
