Item Description
Want a piece of Red Sox History? Bid on this Carl Yastrzemski Signed Baseball!
Carl Yastrzemski replaced a legend in left field for the Boston Red Sox. By the time his 23-year career was over, Yastrzemski was a legend himself.
Yastrzemski replaced Ted Williams in Boston's lineup in 1961, stepping into the spotlight as a much-heralded rookie with only two seasons of minor league experience. Raised in Bridgehampton, N.Y., on his family's potato farm, Yastrzemski briefly attended Notre Dame on a basketball scholarship before signing a professional baseball contract for $100,000.
Yastrzemski spent his entire 23-year career in Boston, where he was an 18-time All-Star and seven-time Gold Glove Award winner. He retired following the 1983 season with 3,419 hits, 1,816 runs scored, 452 home runs, 1,844 RBI and 1,845 walks. He is one of three players in history – along with Barry Bonds and Babe Ruth – to total at least 1,800 runs scored, 1,800 RBI and 1,800 walks.
"I think about baseball when I wake up in the morning," Yastrzemski said. "I think about it all day and I dream about it at night. The only time I don't think about it is when I'm playing it."
Yastrzemski was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1989.
Comes with display case.
