Eddie Murray’s Iconic Dodgers Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History
A Legendary Career
Eddie Murray, one of the most revered first basemen in baseball history, was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2003. His illustrious career is marked by his membership in an elite club of players who have achieved over 3,000 hits and 500 home runs—a feat accomplished by only five players in the history of Major League Baseball. Murray’s prowess on the field was further solidified when he won a World Series championship with the Baltimore Orioles in 1983, and his legacy is immortalized with the retirement of his No. 33 by the Orioles.
The Dodgers Jersey: A Testament to Excellence
This remarkable jersey, worn by Murray during his tenure with the Los Angeles Dodgers, is a testament to his enduring legacy. The jersey features the iconic “Dodgers” script across the chest, with “MURRAY” emblazoned on the back above his number “33,” all crafted in blue on white tackle twill. The front of the jersey proudly displays the number “33” in red tackle twill, adding a striking contrast to the grey fabric.
- Manufacturer Details: The inside of the front left tail bears a “RUSSELL ATHLETIC” size “48” tag, accompanied by flag tags indicating “100% POLYESTER” and the year “1997.”
- Commemorative Patch: The left sleeve features a “DODGERS – Jackie Robinson – 1947 1997 50th ANNIVERSARY” patch, celebrating the legacy of another baseball legend.
- Signature and Authentication: Below the back player number, Murray’s signature in blue pen rates a 9 overall in our opinion, adding a personal touch to this historic piece.
