This is an OFFICIAL LEAGUE Baseball signed by 2006 World Series Champion and former White Sox, Rockies, Cardinals, Cubs and Dodgers 2nd baseman AARON MILES in black pen. The signature rates a 6/10 due to fading. The ball is lightly toned and very nice. Please look at pictures for further detail. I am happy to send/post more pictures upon request, if needed.
DID YOU KNOW? On August 4, Miles threw a perfect 8th inning in a 12–1 loss to Washington. Of Miles' nine pitches, six were for strikes. It was the first time he had pitched since he was 14 years old. Miles pitched during the game when Cardinals' manager Tony LaRussa asked his pitching coach, Dave Duncan, "Who's our shortest reliever?" The tongue-in-cheek answer was Miles, at 5' 8". His pitching career took a turn for the worse later that season. On September 20, he pitched the 9th inning against the Houston Astros and was touched for three hits, including a two-run home run by J.R Towles. It was Towles' first career major league home run. On June 13, 2008, Miles would make his third pitching appearance, this time against Philly. With the Phillies leading, 20–2, Miles came in to finish off the game with a perfect 9th inning while striking out Jimmy Rollins.

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
