Kirby Puckett’s Iconic Game-Worn Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History
A Legendary Career with the Minnesota Twins
Kirby Puckett, a name synonymous with excellence in baseball, is celebrated as one of the greatest players in the history of the Minnesota Twins. A two-time World Series champion, Puckett holds franchise records for hits, runs, doubles, and total bases. His illustrious career was further honored when his No. 34 jersey was retired by the Twins. As a 10-time All-Star, Puckett’s legacy was cemented with his first-ballot induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2001.
The Jersey: A Testament to Greatness
This remarkable jersey, adorned with the iconic “Twins” across the chest and Puckett’s number “34” on both the front and back, is a testament to his enduring legacy. The jersey is crafted in white pinstriped fabric, with all numbering and lettering executed in red on navy blue tackle twill. The attention to detail is evident, with the “TC” team logo embroidered on the left sleeve and the Russell Athletic logo on the right.
- Manufacturer’s Tag: “RUSSELL ATHLETIC” size “48” with washing instructions.
- Material: 100% polyester, as indicated by the flag tag.
- Strip Tag: Located inside the jersey below the rear collar with “92 – 2”.
