Hector Lopez Signed Baseball Yankees – COA JSA

Description

Hector Lopez was an infielder for the Athletics, and later was often the third outfielder on the Maris/Mantle Yankees of the early and mid-1960s. López had his most successful season in 1959, but continued to contribute effectively during their pennant successes. The utility player divided his career almost equally between infield and outfield. After retiring, he went on to become a groundbreaking manager in minor league baseball as the first to break the baseball color line as a black manager at the Triple-A level for the Buffalo Bisons.

Presented is an OAL (Brown) baseball autographed by Hector Lopez. He signed it on a side panel in blue ballpoint pen (“9”). The ball itself shows toning from age.
