Nomar Garciaparra’s 2006 Dodgers Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History
A Stellar Year for Garciaparra
In 2006, Nomar Garciaparra made a triumphant return to the baseball spotlight as a member of the Los Angeles Dodgers. His remarkable performance that year earned him the prestigious NL Comeback Player of the Year award. Garciaparra’s impressive .362 batting average at the All-Star break was the second highest by a Dodger since the team moved to Dodger Stadium in 1962. His outstanding play also secured him a spot on the 2006 NL All-Star Team as the NL Final-Vote Winner, receiving an astounding six million votes.
The Jersey’s Unique Features
This extraordinary jersey, worn by Garciaparra during his memorable 2006 season, is a testament to his exceptional talent and dedication. The front left tail of the jersey features the “Majestic” manufacturer’s tag, accompanied by two flag tags indicating the size “46” and “set 2 2006.” The left inseam bears two additional tags, one with the size “46” and another with the wash instructions.
- Front Design: “Los Angeles” is emblazoned across the front in dodger blue and silver on white tackle twill, with the player number “5” in red tackle twill below.
- Sleeve Details: The left sleeve showcases “Dodgers” embroidered in dodger blue and silver on white tackle twill, with the Majestic “M” logo in dodger blue below.
- Back Design: The official “MLB” logo is embroidered on the rear collar in red, white, and blue, while the player number “5” appears again in dodger blue and silver on white tackle twill.
