Alex Rodriguez’s 2005 MVP Road Jersey: A Historic Piece of Baseball Memorabilia
A Season to Remember
In the annals of baseball history, few seasons stand out as vividly as Alex Rodriguez’s 2005 campaign. This remarkable game-worn MLB jersey is a testament to his extraordinary achievements during that year. Photo-matched to over 20 games, this jersey witnessed Rodriguez’s prowess as he hit 8 home runs and drove in 16 RBIs. Notably, on September 28th, Rodriguez etched his name in the record books by breaking Joe DiMaggio’s 68-year-old record for the most home runs by a right-handed Yankee batter, with an astounding 47 home runs in the season.
Exquisite Craftsmanship and Authenticity
The jersey itself is a masterpiece of sports apparel. On the front left tail, it proudly displays the Majestic manufacturer’s tag, accompanied by a hologram from Steiner and an “ELITE” hologram. Two flag tags beneath reveal its size “48” and the year “2005.” Across the chest, the iconic “NEW YORK” is emblazoned, while the back bears the player number “13,” all crafted in navy blue on white tackle twill. Rodriguez’s signature graces the front in black marker, with the inscription “2005 Game Used AL MVP .321 48 HR 130 RBI,” which, in our opinion, rates an 8.
