Evan Gattis’ Game-Worn Jerseys: A Testament to Baseball Excellence
A Glimpse into Baseball History
In the annals of baseball history, certain moments stand out for their sheer brilliance and impact. One such moment occurred on April 16, 2014, when Evan Gattis, donning a grey COOL BASE jersey, went 4-for-4 with a home run, leading the Atlanta Braves to a narrow 1-0 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. This jersey, a remarkable piece of baseball memorabilia, is a testament to Gattis’ prowess and the Braves’ storied legacy.
Details of the Grey COOL BASE Jersey
The front-left tail of this jersey features the Majestic manufacturer label, with the player number “24” handwritten alongside the size “48” label. The iconic team name and tomahawk logo are emblazoned across the front, while the player number “42”—a tribute to Jackie Robinson—is proudly displayed on the back. Both are crafted in red on navy tackle twill, with the logo adorned with navy and gold embroidery. The MLB patch graces the back of the collar, and the right sleeve is adorned with the Hank Aaron 715 40th ANNIVERSARY patch.
Gattis has personally signed and inscribed the back tail with “Home Run #4 4-16-14 Philadelphia Evan Gattis 24” in black marker, a signature that, in our opinion, rates an 8. The jersey is authenticated with an MLB hologram EK696386 on the back number, further enhancing its value and authenticity.

This time, he wore a red COOL BASE jersey, a special Military Night edition. The Majestic manufacturer size “48” label is prominently displayed on the front left tail, accompanied by a Majestic scan label “48 ‘14 S3”. The team name “Braves” is elegantly crafted in navy tackle twill with silver embroidered stars, a nod to the military theme.
