DID YOU KNOW?
Both in 1986 and in 1989, Gross was called to the pitcher's mound during blowouts. On June 8,
1986
, Gross pitched the final two-thirds of the eighth inning in a 12-0 Phillies loss to the
Montreal Expos
. Gross gave up a double to
Andrés Galarraga
, and then struck out
Casey Candaele
and
Herm Winningham
to end the rout.
And on May 21,
1989
, Gross took the mound in the ninth inning of what wound up being a 17-5 loss by the Astros to the
Pittsburgh Pirates
. In that game, Gross had relieved shortstop
Craig Reynolds
, who had pitched the eighth inning. In the ninth inning, Gross gave up three hits and two earned runs. However, he also struck out
José Lind
swinging.
"The worst part is how close you are to the batter after you throw the ball," Gross told the
Sporting News
in its June 5, 1989 issue. "I throw batting practice, but you've got the screen. I was looking for a way to sneak the screen out there."
This ball was originally purchased through a reputable auction house and I will GUARANTEE THE AUTHENTICITY of the signature with a FULL money back promise if PSA or JSA happens to think otherwise.  I have been collecting, buying and selling baseball autographs for close to 40 years and am considered an expert in the field.  Take a look at the photos, consider my 100% POSITIVE feedback and BID WITH CONFIDENCE.  Please also take a look at my other auctions for more great signed baseballs!
I price ALL of my baseballs to SELL...usually lower priced than all other comparable balls on eBay at the time of listing (seriously...check it out!).  I do list with a "Best Offer" option as again, I am here to SELL these balls, even though I feel my initial pricing is fair.  If you have a reasonable amount in mind, please send an offer.  Worst thing that could happen is for me to decline the offer.  If I counter the offer, it means we're close...let's work together to make it happen.  Thanks for looking!  Brandon
