Pedro Martinez’s 2005 New York Mets Bench-Worn Jersey and Pants

A Glimpse into Baseball History

Step into the world of baseball memorabilia with this extraordinary piece from the legendary Pedro Martinez. This 2005 New York Mets jersey and pants ensemble is a testament to the rich history and enduring legacy of one of baseball’s most celebrated pitchers. Presented to us as bench-worn, this uniform offers a unique glimpse into the life of a player who has left an indelible mark on the sport.

Detailed Craftsmanship and Design

The jersey is a masterpiece of design and craftsmanship, featuring the “Majestic” manufacturer’s tag on the inner front left tail, complete with flag tags indicating the size “44” and the year “2005”. The left inseam bears the “100% POLYESTER” tag with wash instructions, ensuring authenticity and quality. Notably, between the second and third buttons, two corresponding velcro strips are present, adding to the garment’s functional design.

Across the front of the jersey, the iconic “Mets” name is emblazoned, while the player number “45” is prominently displayed both adjacent below and on the back. The player name “MARTINEZ” graces the back, with all lettering and numbering executed in blue glacier on orange on black tackle twill. The left sleeve proudly displays the “Mets” logo, embroidered in vibrant orange, blue, and white, with the Majestic “M” embroidered in blue just below.

Additional Features and Authenticity

• The rear collar features the official “MLB” logo, embroidered in blue, orange, and white.
• The pants include the “Majestic” manufacturer’s tag on the inner rear waistband.
• An adjacent white elastic strip tag reads “45 Martinez 35-39 35 C 05 P3”, embroidered in black.
• The inner front waistband contains the “100% POLYESTER” tag with wash instructions.
• Above the right rear pocket, the Majestic “M” is embroidered in blue and white.

This ensemble was likely worn on the bench, as it lacks the custom opened sleeves that Pedro preferred for pitching. The uniform is properly tagged, was presented to us as bench-worn, and in our opinion, shows appropriate wear.
