Newest addition to The Swish Stash is a foul ball from a BCA game on May 12, 2013. During the top of the second inning it was fouled back to the screen off Detroit’s Rick Porcello at Comerica Park. Pink stitches and pink stamping on ball, of course.
A few Swishers from my Instagram
Well, I didn’t post here much in 2013 … but I did tweet plenty o SwishPics over on Instagram (@chrisolds2013 there, @chrisolds2009 on Twitter) and here’s some of the proof.
There are plenty of Nick Swisher game-used baseball bat cards, but there are just two bat knob cards in existence …
Topps has produced more than a few Nick Swisher game-used baseball bat cards since the first one arrived in 2004 Bowman Draft, but Swish has just two bat knob cards made by any card company.
Each is a 1/1 autographed knob card found in 2009 Topps Unique, a one-shot product that had some high-end thrills found inside its packs.
The two knob cards in Unique have different card numbers — and I am not sure whether one that I lost on eBay is the other card or whether I won this one during its second time on the block. Neither card had much distinguishing features on the knob, unlike most Swisher gamers, which typically have had “BLS” (Swisher’s grandmother’s initials) or some other message on them.
