Ivan “Pudge” Rodriguez was inducted into the Baseball Hall Of Fame in 2017 on the first ballot. On the front left tail is the Russell Athletic manufacturer’s tag size “46” with washing instructions. Attached is a flag tag reading “100% POLYESTER”. Adjacent below is a strip tag reading “7-46-93”. On the left sleeve is the “ARLINGTON STADIUM 1972-1993” patch to honor the final season at the stadium. On the right sleeve reads “HEC” in black tackle twill, the initials of former owner H. E. (Eddie) Chiles who passed away with a Russell Athletic logo embroidered below. Across the chest reads “Rangers” in script style writing. Adjacent below and on the back is the player number “7”. These are done in blue on red tackle twill. Across the back is the player name “RODRIGUEZ” done in blue tackle twill. Rodriguez signed the front of the jersey in black ink and in our opinion the signature rates a 7. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows outstanding use. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA.
