Description

This is a PITTSBURGH PIRATES LOGO Baseball signed by former Pirates pitcher FRANCISCO CORDOVA in gold paint pen. The signature rates an 8/10. The ball itself is bold and beautiful. Please look at pictures for further detail. I am happy to send/post more pictures upon request, if needed. DID YOU KNOW? O n July 12, 1997 , at a sold out Three Rivers Stadium , he pitched nine innings of a combined 10-inning no-hitter for the Pirates. Ricardo Rincon pitched the 10th inning. The Pirates won the game on a dramatic three-run, pinch hit homerun in the bottom of the 10th by Mark Smith . This game pitched by Córdova and Rincón is recognized as the only combined, extra-inning no-hitter in modern MLB history and is the last no-hitter in Pirates history to date. 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
