T206 Piedmont 150 Neal Ball New York PSA 3 - A Glove-First Shortstop with a Place in Baseball Lore
Though not a Hall of Famer, Neal Ball carved out his own place in baseball history with a moment that collectors and historians still remember. On July 19, 1909, Ball became the first player in Major League history to complete an unassisted triple play, an achievement that instantly cemented his legacy. A reliable shortstop and solid contributor during the Deadball Era, Ball suited up primarily for the New York Highlanders and later the Cleveland Naps.
This T206 Piedmont 150 card offers a classic representation of Ball in his Highlanders uniform, preserved in PSA 3 condition. The card features rich lithographic tones and a sharp profile pose, showcasing the elegant simplicity that defines the T206 set. With some expected edge wear and light creasing, this example retains a respectable presentation that pairs well with its historical significance.
