On May 26, 1993 Texas Ranger rightfielder Jose Canseco settled under a fly ball hit by Cleveland's Carlos Martinez, only to have it hit squarely on top of his head and bounce into the stands for a home run. The classic "lowlight" has been shown endlessly on TV sportscasts and may be Canseco's epitaph despite bashing 400-plus home runs, which may be why he signed the blue, red and white Ranger cap with his name, "# 33" and "Cleveland 5/26/93" in white marker. The signature rates a 6. The date and "33" is also handwritten on the underside. The cap comes with a letter of authenticity.
