The MLB postseason has already had its share of moments with big names attached ... and as promised here's a second gamer with some big names attached.
This month's ball in the Collecting Game-used series is the second of two I landed not knowing who would be attached, just knowing that they were from a certain date in the postseason's past with the teams known -- and in this case it's from a pair of teammates now with the New York Mets and a pair of All-Stars. How did they sit all these years since they're from back in 2017? Well, based on holograms, they were originally in Steiner Sports' hands after going through MLB Authentication and then into Fanatics' possession.
Keep reading to see the details this time ... and the ball in action.
THE BASICS ...
Game-used ball (MLB Authenticated): Cleveland Indians at New York Yankees, American League Division Series Game 4 -- Oct. 9, 2017
Watch it in action: One pitch via the MLB Film Room below.

The matchup: Yankees SP Luis Severino vs. Indians SS Francisco Lindor in the first inning of a 7-3 Yankees victory.
The results: A slider for a ball off the glove of C Gary Sanchez that rolled to the backstop and out of play as part of the game's opening at-bat.
What's Buzz-worthy: The game notes here are the same as last month -- so I can keep it brief -- but I liked the trivia here as these two All-Stars are now teammates and in the playoff hunt this year. In fact, they'll be playing tomorrow night ... seven years to the day this showdown happened.
