Online gallery 20x200 has a few of my favorite sports-related prints, including Tatsuro Kiuchi's "In the Ballpark" (Image 1). Also, as someone who has been a Phillies fan since before birth (just ask my mom), I am partial to Derek Erdman's original portrait of Mike Schmidt (Image 2). While jerseys are good for hardcore fans, maybe the best, least cheesy way to incorporate the sport is with baseballs themselves. Check them out displayed in Images 8, 9 and 10.

Love this post! We have ball fields just down the street and love to "play" as a family. Thank you for additional inspiration. xoxo michele
I will be doing a baseball post on Monday showing how the library has multiple media genres that compliment this theme beautifully. Will link back to you and give props on your inspiration.

One thing my wife did to allow me to show my love of baseball while maintaining a design aesthetic was to make it a part of the room's decor, and not a display. She found an antique oyster basket and I put all of the ball's I've caught at MLB games in that basket.

I love baseball decor! From bobbleheads to balls I've caught at games, our office has several items that relate but the room doesn't go overboard and has a good mix with other elements.
As a Cardinals fan, I'm loving the last photo w/ the photo of the '68 Cardinals.
