World Series 1980 - Kansas City vs. Phillies

In 1980, at the age of 12 years old, I attended Game 6 of the World Series - Kansas City vs. Philadelphia. After the Phillies were triumphant, my father and his best friend, who happened to be Bob Boone's lawyer at the time, took me in the dug-out and had the team sign a ball for me. Very fortunate 12 yr old, I know.

This ball has a letter of authenticity and signatures that will go down in history and some that already have., Steve Carlton, Mike Schmidt, etc. For Game to Game highlights, click on: http://www.baseball-almanac.com/ws/yr1980ws.shtml
