Infamous 1967 Tony Conigliaro Beaning Ticket (PSA)
Ticket stub from the infamous game where a fastball got away from Angels’ starter Jack Hamilton and struck the face of the Red Sox rookie and local product. The pitch damaged the retina in his left eye, cracked Conigliaro’s left cheekbone, and dislocated his jaw. The horrific incident caused Tony to miss the entire 1968 season. He returned to the Red Sox in 1969 and belted 20 home runs, but his career would ultimately end completely by the age of 30 when he lost full vision in his left eye. In the end it likely killed him, contributing to his way too early passing. Slabbed and graded Authentic by PSA, one of two known.
