Hit a Home Run with Baseball Checks

By Alan Plastin


Baseball is a true American sport and tradition. There's nothing better on a summer day than getting your family together and heading outside, bats and gloves in tow. Or, how about catching a Major League Baseball game on television with a group of friends? Now, if you're a fan of the popular sport, you can personalize your bank checks this favorite American pastime.

Baseball has been recognized as America's national sport since the late nineteenth century. Even though it is played throughout the world, from Japan to Cuba, it is still an American tradition at heart. The first official baseball game took place in Hoboken, New Jersey on June 19, 1846 and has been going strong since.

One of the reasons that baseball became so popular in the United States was the fact that it was accessible to everyone. Class, race, and geography didn't matter in this sport. As a matter of fact, most baseball diamonds were located in rural areas, giving people outside of the city limits a chance to play. Tickets were priced low enough so that most people could afford to go to a game and get quality entertainment. As a result, it became a sport that everyone could enjoy.

If you're a fan of Major League Baseball and support a certain team, then you might be interested to know that there are checks available with your favorite team's image. Teams like the Chicago Cubs, Boston Red Sox, San Francisco Giants, Houston Astros, New York Yankees, and Philadelphia Phillies, as well as the other major teams, can all be found as images on bank checks. You can't showcase your support of a team much better than that.

If it's not a specific Major League Baseball team that you are looking for, you can also find baseball themed checks that just contain images of the game itself. One design available has 4 rotating scenes of baseball images which include photographs of a player sliding into home, a ball flying through the air and into an awaiting glove, an umpire calling "safe", and a worn out glove.

A further popular series of checks merely has close-up images of balls, bats, gloves, and the baseball diamond itself-the fundamentals required to playing the game.

You can also purchase coordinating accessories for your baseball checks. There are matching address labels, contact cards, and checkbook covers to go with most checkbook designs. Although designs differ according to the company, a popular checkbook cover that anyone could carry is black leather and contains an image of a baseball, two bats, and a diamond.

You don't have to worry about price when it comes to buying your baseball personal checks, either. Whereas it used to be costly to purchase bank checks from your local bank, and difficult to come across the images and designs that you wanted, it doesn't have to be that way anymore thanks to the internet. With several highly regarded websites, you are able to have access to hundreds of check images at 50% off the price that you might have paid in the past at your local bank.

You'll just need your checking account number and routing number when ordering your baseball checks online. You can figure on your checks arriving in the mail to you in about 5 days.
