A. Major League Items

Item Description

You're bidding on an official Major League Baseball, signed in the sweet spot by Washington Nationals phenom Stephen Strasburg and featuring his number 37. Be ready when this amazing pitcher takes the mound again, and get in early on what's sure to be an in-demand souvenir. Nats fans in particular look forward to the return of Strasburg, and this baseball will help remind them of everything they have to look forward to.

Stephen Strasburg's debut for the Washington Nationals was one of the most electrifying moments in Major League Baseball in 2010. The number-one pick cut through minor-league ball like a scythe, and his arrival in DC was highly anticipated by the long-suffering hometown fans.

And what a debut it was! Strasburg quickly answered any lingering questions about his readiness, striking out 14 opponents in seven innings (including the last seven he faced!) before an amped-up sellout crowd and a national television audience. He followed that up with continued strong performances, going 5-3 for the Nats with 92 strikeouts in just 68 innings.

Strasburg's season, as any baseball fan knows, was cut short by Tommy John surgery, leaving him out for most if not all of 2011. But with the success rate of the surgery, not to mention Strasburg's work ethic, the phenom is sure to come back and dominate like he never left. Be ready for his return with this signed ball!
