Greg Maddux’s Iconic Game-Used Jersey: A Testament to Pitching Excellence
A Legendary Career in Baseball
Greg Maddux, a name synonymous with pitching brilliance, stands alone as the only pitcher in Major League Baseball history to achieve the remarkable feat of over 300 wins, more than 3,000 strikeouts, and fewer than 1,000 walks. His illustrious career is adorned with accolades, including a World Series championship, four National League Cy Young Awards, and the honor of having his No. 31 retired by two franchises, including the Atlanta Braves. In 2014, Maddux was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame on the first ballot, cementing his legacy as one of the greatest pitchers to ever grace the mound.
The Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History
This extraordinary jersey, worn by Maddux during his tenure with the Atlanta Braves, is a rare and coveted piece of baseball memorabilia. The front left tail features a “RUSSELL ATHLETIC” size “44” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions, accompanied by a PSA/DNA sticker, “Z03784”. A flag tag below reads “100% POLYESTER”. Across the chest, “Atlanta” is emblazoned in red on navy blue tackle twill, with the iconic Tomahawk logo below. The back proudly displays the player number “31” and the name “MADDUX” in navy blue tackle twill on a grey nameplate.
A Signature of Triumph
Adding to its allure, Maddux has signed the jersey in blue pen, inscribing “95 W.S. CHAMPS!” This signature, in our opinion, rates a 7 overall, further enhancing the jersey’s value and significance. The right sleeve bears the Russell Athletic logo, embroidered with precision. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows excellent use, making it a must-have for any serious collector.
