1984 Pete Rose Montreal Expos Game-Used Road Jersey

Pete Rose’s 1984 Montreal Expos Jersey: A Historic Artifact

A Milestone in Baseball History

Pete Rose, a name synonymous with baseball greatness, stands as Major League Baseball’s all-time leader in hits. In 1984, he achieved a monumental milestone by becoming only the second player in history to reach the 4,000-hit plateau, joining the legendary Ty Cobb. This remarkable achievement is immortalized in the form of a game-worn jersey from his time with the Montreal Expos, a piece that resonates with the echoes of baseball history.

Exquisite Craftsmanship and Design

The jersey itself is a testament to the era’s style and craftsmanship. On the inside of the front left tail, a “Rawlings” size “44” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions is prominently displayed. Attached to this is a tag that reads “SET 1 1984”, indicating its authenticity and origin. Above, a red stripe tag with “Rose 84” embroidered in white stitching adds a personal touch to this iconic piece.

The front of the jersey is adorned with “expos” in red tackle twill, accompanied by the team’s “M” logo in red, white, and blue tackle twill. The player number “14” graces both the right chest and the back, while the name “ROSE” is emblazoned across the back, all in the same striking red tackle twill. This jersey is not only properly tagged but was presented to us as game-used and, in our opinion, shows appropriate use.
