With a nice, easy delivery combined with a devastating fastball, Bert Blyleven baffled Major League batters for 22 years. He holds the distinction of having won World Series rings in both leagues and retired just 13 wins short of 300 which would surely have earned him a place in the Hall of Fame. In the neck is the "Wilson" label and size "44." On the left front tail is a white label with "85 1" in blue chain stitch. This denotes year and set number respectively. Across the front of the jersey is the team name "Twins" and below this is the player number "28" in red on blue tackle twill. On the back of the jersey is the player name "Blyleven" in red tackle twill. The name on the back has been restored. Below this is the player number "28" in red on blue tackle twill. On the left sleeve is the "Minnesota Twins" logo patch. The jersey shows game-use and with the exception of the restored name on the back, appears to have no other alterations of any kind.
