Pete Rose’s 1984 Cincinnati Reds Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History

An Iconic Player and His Legacy

Pete Rose, known as baseball’s hit king, is a legendary figure in the world of baseball memorabilia. With a career that boasts 17 All-Star selections, three World Series championships, and a National League MVP award, Rose’s achievements are unparalleled. His contributions to Major League Baseball are further highlighted by his three-time NL batting champion titles, the retirement of his No. 14 by the Cincinnati Reds, and his inclusion in the MLB All-Century Team.

The Jersey’s Unique Features

This remarkable jersey, a testament to Rose’s illustrious career, features the Rawlings size “44” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions on the inside front left tail. Attached to this is a flag tag reading “SET 1 1984”. The left chest proudly displays the Reds team logo in white embroidery on red tackle twill. The player number “14” is prominently featured on both the right chest and the back, with the player name “ROSE” emblazoned across the back. All numbering and lettering are crafted in red tackle twill, sewn directly onto the jersey.
