Wade Boggs Signed Red Sox Batting Helmet Inscribed "HOF 05" (Schwartz Sports COA)

Boston Red Sox full-size replica plastic souvenir batting helmet. Has been hand-signed by Wade Boggs (HOF).

Wade Boggs spent his 18-year baseball career primarily with the Boston Red Sox, but also played for the New York Yankees, with whom he won a World Series ring, and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, with whom he reached 3,000 hits. His hitting in the 1980s and 1990s made him a perennial contender for American League batting titles. He is 33rd on the list of career leaders for batting average among Major League Baseball players with a minimum of 1000 plate appearances. Boggs was elected to the Red Sox Hall of Fame in 2004 and the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2005.

With 12 straight All-Star appearances, Boggs is third only to Brooks Robinson and George Brett in the number of consecutive appearances as a third baseman. In 1997, he ranked number 95 on the Sporting News list of the 100 Greatest Baseball Players and was a nominee for the Major League Baseball All-Century Team.

The lot / autograph(s) includes an official Schwartz Sports Hologram and matching COA for authenticity purposes.
