MLB Authenticated - Kevin Kiermaier DOUBLE to Michael A. Taylor and Tsutsugo Yoshitomo Ground Out to Whit Merrifield off Ervin Santana. Shipped with USPS Ground Advantage. Buyer pays shipping and handling.

On April 20, 2021, the Tampa Bay Rays visited the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. Rich Hill started for the Rays, while Brad Keller went for the Royals.

In the top of the fifth, Ervin Santana was on the mound. Tsutsugo Yoshimoto led off. SANTANA HELD THIS BALL IN HIS HAND!! He threw a 79.1 mph slider for a called strike. (Yes, that means Salvador Perez also touched this ball!) Santana came back with 91.9 mph four-seamer, and TSUTSUGO PULLED THIS BALL TO WHIT MERRIFIELD, WHO THREW THIS BALL TO CARLOS SANTANA TO GET THE OUT!!

Santana got this ball back. Kevin Kiermaier stepped to the plate. Santana started with an 80.5 mph slider for a called strike. He then threw a changeup for a ball. On the fifth pitch with this baseball, Santana threw a 90.3 mph four-seamer, and KIERMAIER RIPPED THIS BALL 104 MPH AND 408 FEET OFF THE WALL IN CF WHERE MICHAEL A. TAYLOR GRABBED AND THREW IT BACK IN, BUT NOT BEFORE KIERMAIER HAD HIS FIRST DOUBLE OF THE SEASON!! This ball was then retired. Willy Adames tripled, scoring Kiermaier. Mike Zunino struck out, and Austin Meadows flew out to Taylor to end the half inning. The Rays went on to win 14-7, getting hits from Meadows, Randy Arozarena, Joey Wendle, Brandon Lowe, Manuel Margot, Tsutsugo, Kiermaier, Adames, and Zunino.

This ball is MLB Authenticated for all five pitches from Santana, including Tsutsugo’s ground out to Merrifield and Kiermaier’s double to Taylor. This ball comes with a case. Thank you for purchasing!!
