Hailing from his third season of play in the Bronx as a member of the New York Yankees in which he registered a slash line of .263/.330/.374 with nine (9) home runs and twenty (20) stolen bases, offered here is this Yankees jersey worn by center fielder, Jacoby Ellsbury on April 8th, 2016 against the Detroit Tigers in Opening Day at Comerica Park. Made by Majestic, a brand/MLB Authentic Collection jock tag is heat-pressed over the front tail and displays a Steiner hologram numbered “236671” while a Yankees team inventory tag that has had an MLB hologram numbered “JB791282” is heat pressed underneath. Having had a washing instructions tag added inside the left hip that displays a size “44” designation, an additional Majestic/MLB Authentic Collection label is heat pressed over the placket, displaying a “2016” year designation and other information. Decorated over the front of the jersey with “New York” in dual layer tackle twill letters that have been sewn on in a gentle arch. a number “8” memorial patch for Yankees legend Yogi Berra has been added on over the left sleeve. Accented over the reverse with Ellsbury’s number “22” in matching style underneath an MLB league logo patch that is affixed to the reverse neckline, the jersey shows light wear via dirt staining to the left sleeve and some light fabric rubbing on the interior while all the buttons on the front are present and accounted for. A matching Steiner LOA will accompany the piece.
Additionally, also included with the lot is a Yankees retail model replica jersey signed by Alex “A-Rod” Rodriguez. Once again made by Majestic with a Majestic/MLB Genuine Merchandise jock tag affixed to the lower front, the jersey is in the same road grey style as the Ellsbury with “New York” arching across the chest in sewn on dual layer tackle twill letters. Featuring both Majestic and size “XL” labels affixed to the inner collar along with the original retail hang tag, the reverse display’s Rodriguez’s number “13” in dual layer tackle twill letters with the 1996 AL batting champion having signed the number “3” with a silver ink signature that displays without issue. Remaining in excellent condition with no major flaws, a COA will accompany the piece.
