    Description

    Up for auction is my 1980 Game Used Baseball Glove I wore when I pitched for the Pittsburgh Pirates!  This is a Rawlings (Made in the USA) glove Wing Tip model XFG 6-P.  The glove is made with "Heart of the Hide" leather.  This is a Rawlings "Wing Tip" glove and this is "For The Professional Player".  Next to the "Wing Tip" on the outside of the glove I wrote "22" in black sharpie, my number with the Pirates.  Along the outside of the left thumb it says "Edge-U-Cated Heel" and a patent number under it.  I wrote "BLY 22" right over this area.  Under this patent number are 4 dots.  The dots indicate the year of the glove based on the Blackhorse system used by Rawlings.  I attached the Blackhorse decoder in my photos.  The Rawlings patch is still on the glove above the hand but I did color in the circle Rawlings "R" logo.  You can also see good wear on the glove.  My index finger has created some wear on the outside of the glove and the inside the glove shows a lot of wear as well.
    In 1980 I went 8-13 with a 3.82 ERA
    .  I pitched in 34 games and had 168 strikeouts with 5 complete games.  This is a very nice glove with a lot of memories attached to it.  Please message me with any questions before bidding.  I will include a Letter of Provenance signed by me stating I used this glove in 1980 while pitching for the Pittsburgh Pirates.  As always, part of the proceeds of the sale of the glove go towards charities Gayle and I hold near and dear to our hearts.  Thank You for your support and God Bless!
    This item is part of my own, Bert Blyleven, collection.  I will be donating a portion of the proceeds to the Parkinson's Foundation, St. Jude Medical, Crescent Cove, Harry Chapin Food Bank, Wounded Warriors, Cancer Care and other charities.  I played for the Minnesota Twins, Texas Rangers, Pittsburgh Pirates, Cleveland Indians and California Angles and I was a longtime TV color analyst for the Twins.  I am also a proud member of the Baseball Hall of Fame.  Continue to check out my eBay page as I will be listing several items throughout the year.  I appreciate you for taking the time to look at my auction and you are "Hereby Circled!"
