Own a piece of Garza’s no-hitter

Posted Sep 10, 2010 by Roger Mooney

The Tampa Bay Rays have teamed up with The Highland Mint to produce a limited edition run of 250 Matt Garza plaques to commemorate the first no-hitter in Rays history.  On July 26, 2010 at Tropicana Field, Garza threw a complete-game no-hitter against the Detroit Tigers to join baseball immortality. 

In recognition of that honor, the Rays are offering individually numbered commemorative plaques with an actual ticket from that game, game-used dirt from Tropicana Field and a photo autographed by Garza.  All of these items are authenticated by Major League Baseball. 

The plaques are available for a limited time only for $199.99 beginning Friday, September 10, 2010.  All proceeds will benefit the Rays Baseball Foundation. 

Fans may own a piece of Rays history with this one-of-a kind custom piece by ordering online at http://www.raysbaseball.com/garzanono.
