Duke Snider’s 1968 Dodgers Coaching Jersey: A Timeless Treasure

A Legendary Figure in Baseball History

Duke Snider, an iconic figure in the annals of baseball, was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1980. His illustrious career is marked by two World Series Championships with the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers and an impressive eight-time All-Star selection. Snider’s legacy is further immortalized by his record for the most home runs in the World Series by a National League player, with a staggering 11 homers. His number 4 jersey has been retired by the Dodgers, a testament to his enduring impact on the sport.
