My grandpa passed away last week. Baseball was our thing we did together. Grandma handed me a box of “stuff he’d been collecting for you”.

That's awesome. Really shows how much he was thinking about you. It's cool that you were able to share a passion with him.

Grandma has told me that both the glove and the jersey were worn in game and given to my grandparents as they married a couple on home plate for opening day. (Grandma and grandpa were ministers).

EDIT: Glove was a giveaway day at Safeco Field (not game worn) Grandmas memory ain’t what it used to be.
