Wow awesome video and love the used bats and ball, tremendous! Love the Gwynn and Strawberry bats! Also it's heartwarming to see you with your kids sharing the experience.
@Absolutesublime1 Thanks a lot! I've been teaching my boys how to play baseball for a little while now and (fortunately) they love it. The only hard part with the memorabilia is eventually having to take it away. We've had some epic battles over old bats.
Good to see you on your new channel that was a pretty crappy situation you were in. Keep it up and I'm sure all will be back to normal in no time. Thanks for watching!
Saw a positive rant on you and gave you a sub. Please hit me up as well. I see you are a St.Louis fan. I have a bunch of McGwire refractors if you collect him I can trade. I remember Oquendo, saw him pitch in a 18 inning game once to become one of only a handfull of players to play every position in one season. I am a big McGee fan he is from my hometown, I used to play hoops with his neaphew, he looked just like him.
@nblackford1412 Thanks. I don't really collect much McGwire stuff but I'll certainly take a look. I remember that 19 inning game Oquendo pitched in the late 80's. Awesome stuff. He was certainly the definition of "utility player".
McGee was one of my favorites when I was younger but I'm sorry to hear your friend looked just like him. Ha! Thanks for watching.
@ribsandwhiskey Ya he was goofy looking it was kind of spooky how much they looked alike. 19 innings you remember better than I(Around The Horn Error on me).
@squeepa21 Thanks a bunch Phil! Love the blue refractors too. Coghlan's stuff in INSANELY cheep these days since he was out for the last 1/4 of the season with the "pie" injury. I just grab doubles, 3x, etc... of cards that go for REALLY low prices.
At 2 1/2 the kids don't really understand the hobby yet but they LOVE baseball (and know who Ozzie is. WOO!)
When I saw that Gwynn bat I knew I had to get it. If you're really jealous I'll trade you for all your IP auto's (I'm jealous)
Memorabilia is freakin amazing man! I love seeing the growth of all your collections and the fact your kids love it too!!! That is what it is all about!
@BBnut249 Thanks a bunch BB. The collections are definitely always growing. I try to put the memorabilia stuff in the vids when I get something(s) I'm particularly excited about.
It's fun having the kids help! They have no idea what's really going on, but they love baseball which makes me smile!
damn, insane stuff Eric! Those bats are incredible! Tony Gwynn's bat is especially nice with that big signature and inscription to Sofia. Hope everything is going well with you and the kids.
@4bengalsfan9 Chaaaaaaaad!!!!!!!!! Very good too see you around. Drop me a PM so we can catch up. I'd love to hear what you've been upto.
Hope summer was good to you and your son's team finished a little stronger then the Reds "epic playoff run". People might forget about Matt Holliday's miss last season now. Thank you!
Frying your own food FTW!!! That smell stays in the kitchen for days though which sucks, but just a reason to fry some more!! Awesome vid as usual. Nice Coghlans, dudes a poor mans Pedroia and is gonna continue to get better!!
@TheEdByrd Thanks Bird Man! Use clean oil and put it (i use an electric wok at home) under the hood fan so it doesn't stink!
Coghlan should have a pretty productive career for sure if he can stop throwing pies at people and hurting himself. His cards are REALLY cheap right now so I've just been buying a lot of multiples.
@jDuBs8o Thanks jDubs. If you like the Astro's and are anywhere near Houston..... Most of Sofia Garza's collection (where those bat's came from) is going to be auctioned by Tristar at the end of this month. She had 100's (if not 1000's) of amazing Astros pieces since she saw every game they played at home since 1966.
@arfalc77 Thanks Michael! I decided to teach the kids how to make fried chicken. I was actually home and they like to sit at the island in the kitchen and watch me cook (+ they usually have a much healthier dinner. Ha!) I'll send you some next time.
In a few years I'm hoping they'll be ready for the electric wok full of boiling oil
sweet freaking stuff eric. yes you found that pic of me huh... that was a weird time of my life... when I was asian. Those bats are freaking ridiculous.
@pinetarsports Thanks again Ryan. I cracked up when I saw the box you sent in the mailbox. The Coghlan bobble-head is displayed proudly on my desk. Been doing some digging tonight trying to find some cards you might like.

Those blue refractor RC autos from Bowman Chrome look amazing in person - albeit a bit pricey ;-)
Sweet new Coghlan from TripThreads too!
I love that pic at 4:07 - can't wait to have kids to enjoy the hobby with.
Yeah - I would say the new Herzog looks a LITTLE better ;-)
WOW - AWESOME Gwynn bat!
I admit...I'm jealous, lol
Nice pickups, Eric!
