Original vintage program for a Major League Baseball game between the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers played at Navin Field in Detroit, Michigan, on June 13, 1930, measuring 9 x 12 open, signed vertically next to the inner Yankees scorecard roster in ink by Babe Ruth. The lower Tigers scorecard section is similarly signed by famed Tigers Hall of Fame manager Bucky Harris. The scorecard has been filled out in pencil by a spectator. In very good condition, with the program covers detached, light soiling and staining, and a heavy central fold, none of which affect Ruth's signature. The Yankees won the contest 10 to 9 with Ruth recording three runs on three walks and one double. The Yankees finished the 1930 season with an 86–68 record, finishing 16 games behind the Philadelphia Athletics, but set a team record by recording a .309 batting average during this season.
