KALAMAZOO, Mich. — When talking about memorabilia from sports icons we tend to think of cards, balls, or uniforms. Now there's a unique piece of sports history up for sale in West Michigan.

A home touted as where a young Derek Jeter grew up is listed for sale in Kalamazoo. The house sits on Cumberland Street, with the backyard ending at the campus of Kalamazoo Central High School, where Jeter attended. The school's baseball field was just renamed after the Baseball Hall of Fame member.

The listing is chock full of baseball puns, including calling potential buyers to "step up to the plate."

The 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom home is listed for $300,000. While there's no mention on whether there's a signature of Jeter's in the home, it would cost more than the most expensive signed Jeter memorabilia: a ball from Game 3 of the 2001 ALDS is currently available for $178,174.
