Baseball Gifts for September
September is baseball's final lap — and it's also the month of fall weddings, fantasy league championships, and the birthdays of the fans who've been keeping score all year. Here's what to get them.
The baseball fan in your life has been following their team since Opening Day. September is when every game becomes more important. It's also when some of the most meaningful gift occasions land — groomsmen gifts for fall weddings, fantasy league trophies as leagues crown their champion, and the birthdays of fans who could tell you what happened in September 2011 without looking it up.
A hand-lettered scorecard of any MLB game from the last 100 years is the September gift that actually lands. It connects to what they love, in a way that no mass-produced merchandise can replicate.
Fantasy Baseball League Winner
The Trophy They'll Actually Want to Keep
Fantasy leagues crown their champions in September and October. The traditional trophy — plastic, generic, forgettable — sits in a box by January. A scorecard of the real game that matters most to the winning roster is something they'll put on a wall.
The concept: the game their team's most important player had his defining moment. The game they built their roster around. A night that belongs to the baseball they love — scored play by play in real handwriting, from the official Retrosheet record. Perfect for the league commissioner who wants to do something memorable for the winner.

Groomsmen Gifts for Fall Weddings
The Gift the Whole Party Gets — Matched
September and October are peak wedding season. Finding a groomsmen gift that the whole party will actually want — and that means something — is harder than it sounds. A matched set of scorecards of the same game gives the groom's party something that connects them: the night they all watched together, the team they all grew up watching, the game that belongs to their shared baseball geography.
A group order of five scorecards at $29 each is $145 total. No minimum. Instant digital download — print as many copies of each as you need.

The Game from the Night You Met
If your relationship started at a ballpark — if he proposed at the game, if you went on your first date during the playoffs — the scorecard from that game exists. Any MLB game from 1921 onward is available from the official play-by-play record, scored in real handwriting.
Baseball Anniversary Gifts →How It Works
Every Field & Ink scorecard is built from the official Retrosheet play-by-play record for that game — every pitch, every at-bat, every stolen base and strikeout, scored in the founder's real handwriting and verified for accuracy. The result is a $29 print-ready digital download: a legal-sized sheet that prints clearly at home or at any print shop, suitable for framing.
