When I was at the Harrisburg Senators game last Tuesday I saw a number of fans wearing a red Stephen Strasburg Senators jersey. It was clearly a promotional item, it had the logo of one of the local television stations on the sleeve. The morning after the game I scoured eBay, and I found several for sale. It had been given away at the June 1st game against the Trenton Thunder, and sellers were offering it for between 35 and 50 dollars. I bought one, and it arrived today. I don't know that I'll wear it, but it's definitely a neat collectible to have.

Nat Gio? Flat Gio. (Via, with video here.)
