Few players have ever captured the hearts and attention of the national baseball audience like Sammy Sosa did in 1998. This jersey speaks to a time and place when we all routed for Sammy to feed the ballhwaks outside of Wrigley field. Customized elastic sleeve cuffs, the captain’s “C” on the right shoulder and a “walking Cubbie bear” patch on the left just screams “Let’s Get Some Runs.”
Moderate soiling is present throughout the jersey and the back is inscribed with annotations and autograph for home runs 433-435 and “game used” by Sosa himself. The jersey also bears hologram 21 SOSA (ASI 1219).
