MLB Memorabilia Original MLB Art and Prints – Ty Cobb, one of the game?ÇÖs first great players, dominated his era with a strong bat, and incredible speed. Known for playing the game with grit and determination, his style of play often went to the edge of the rules, and sometimes, even beyond the rules. He was rumored to have sharpened his cleats before each game so that he could spike his opponents as he slid into a base. Regardless of what you thought of his aggressive tactics, there was no denying his on the field accomplishments. He retired with 4,189 hits, an all time record that stood for fifty years. His 892 career stolen bases were considered the standard of the modern era, and this mark was also not surpassed for fifty years. Here we see the Georgia Peach, in typical fashion, sliding hard into third base in a game at Hilltop Park against the New York Highlanders..

MLB Memorabilia Original MLB Art and Prints – The Bambino, The Sultan of Swat, The Babe, nicknames for arguably the greatest performer in the history of organized American sports, George Herman Ruth. From a rough upbringing in Baltimore to the heights of the baseball world, Babe Ruth had a legendary zest for life. On the ball field, there was never a competitor that achieved his level of success. He broke in with the Boston Red Sox as a 19 year old pitcher in 1914, throwing just 23 innings. In 1915, he won 18 games, and followed that up with consecutive 20 win seasons in 1916 and 1917. He was among the elite pitchers of his time, and amazingly never lost a start when pitching against Washington ace, Walter Johnson. Ruth was a mainstay of a pitching staff that saw the Red Sox capture World Series titles in 1915, 1916, and 1918. The Red Sox and the rest of the American League did notice something else about the Babe on days that he pitched. That man could swing the bat! As such, the Sox moved him to the outfield on days that he did not pitch, and eventually he was more an every day player than a pitcher. Following the 1919 season, he was inexplicably shipped to the New York Yankees. Taking advantage of the short porch in the Polo Grounds, the Babe blasted a heretofore unthinkable 54 home runs. He followed that up with 59 in 1921. As his successes grew, so did his legend, and to this day, he is the standard bearer for success in any American athletic competition..

MLB Memorabilia Original MLB Art and Prints – The drive to compete. The drive to excel. Every day. Every game. A local kid from Maryland broke into the big leagues as a third baseman with the Baltimore Orioles in 1981. The following season, on may 30, 1982, in the team?ÇÖs 46th game of the year, Cal Ripken, Jr. Was penciled into the starting lineup. It would be sixteen years and 2,632 games before the Baltimore Orioles would have a starting line-up without his name in it. He shattered the longevity record of 2,130 games set by the Iron Horse, Lou Gehrig – a feat that most baseball observers thought was unattainable by any other player. Cal Ripken Jr., the ultimate competitor, transformed the position of shortstop. He was a gold glove caliber fielder who brought power to the position of shortstop like few before him could do, and he had the uncanny ability to come up with the biggest hits when the lights were shining their brightest. The litany of his achievements is amazing: rookie of the year, two time American League most valuable player, and member of the 1983 World Champion Orioles. One of the greatest ambassadors the game of baseball has ever seen, he had the great fortune to play with his brother as a teammate and his father as a coach and manager. Cal Ripken, Jr.?ÇÖs place in baseball history was cemented by his overwhelming selection into baseball?ÇÖs Hall of Fame in 2007..

MLB Memorabilia Original MLB Art and Prints – A rifle-armed rightfielder, Roberto Clemente was one of his era?ÇÖs great hitters. A member of baseball?ÇÖs 3000 hit club, a four-time batting champion and a .317 lifetime hitter, he was a feared member of the Pittsburgh Pirates batting order for nearly two decades. He won the 1966 NL Most Valuable Player award, and was a member of two world championship teams, including his phenomenal performance in the 1971 fall classic when he batted .414 and was voted the series MVP. Sadly, he perished at a young age in a plane crash while bringing relief supplies to Central America following an earthquake..

MLB Memorabilia Original MLB Art and Prints – The Bronx Bombers were in a position that would become all too familiar at the start of the 1929 season. They were anxious to take the field as defending World Champions, having swept St. Louis in the previous year?ÇÖs World Series. It was the second consecutive Series sweep for the mighty New Yorkers, as they had also swept Pittsburgh in the 1927 series. This team, already being hailed as the greatest ever, was itching to defend their back to back titles. However, bad weather had forced a two day delay in opening the season, but finally on April 18, 1929 the weather broke enough to allow the raising of the championship banner and the first game of the new campaign. Playing under cold, graying skies and to a near capacity crowd, which included heavy weight champion Jack Dempsey, these New Yorkers set the tone for what they thought would be another great march through the American League. Batting third for the Bombers in the bottom of the first is the mighty Bambino, who has just launched a pitch from Boston hurler Charlie Ruffing deep into the right field stands for his first round tripper of the season. On deck, waiting for his licks was the Iron Horse himself. Larrupin’ Lou must have taken excellent notes because five innings later he also cranked one deep into the right field stands. These two shots propelled New York to an opening day 7-3 victory. The numbers on the backs of the Babe and Lou were assigned to them because of their spots in the batting order, as this became the first game ever where players had numbers on their uniforms. While numbers on the uniforms soon became a staple of teams at all levels of baseball, they did not bring much luck to New York, as the Philadelphia Athletics won three consecutive pennants in 1929, 1930, and 1931. It would take until 1932 for the Bombers to re-visit the series, when they swept the Cubs behind Ruth?ÇÖs ?Ç£called shot?Ç¥ in Wrigley Field..

MLB Memorabilia Original MLB Art and Prints – During the 1980?ÇÖs, when you thought of class on the baseball field, the first name that came to mind was Don Mattingly. A tireless worker, he first tasted big league pitching in 1982. By 1984, not only had he become the everyday first baseman of the New York Yankees, but he put up a year that would be the envy of anyone. .343 batting average, 23 dingers and 110 RBI?ÇÖs. Incredibly, he followed that year up by winning the 1985 American League Most Valuable Player award. His relentless assault on the pitching staffs of the American League earned him the nick name ?Ç£The Hit Man?Ç¥ and his tireless work ethic and passion for the game, earned him moniker ?Ç£Donnie Baseball?Ç¥. He hit over .300 every year from 1984 through 1989, and was part of a juggernaut Yankee offense that piled up runs at record rates. Despite his prolific hitting and the team?ÇÖs potent line up, the one thing that he was missing was a trip to the post season. As the decade turned to the 1990?ÇÖs, the team?ÇÖs performance fell way off and the Yankees were suddenly floundering near the bottom of the division. Still the darling of the fans, Donnie Baseball seemed destined to be the greatest Yankee never to feel the passion of post season baseball. Finally, in 1994, the Yankees rebounded in a big way. By August, they were running away with the Eastern Division, when a work stoppage ended the season. Again, there would be no post season for the Hit Man..
