An Iconic Piece of Baseball History
In the realm of baseball memorabilia, few items capture the essence of the sport like game-worn jerseys. These garments are not just pieces of fabric; they are tangible connections to the moments that define a player’s career. Among such cherished collectibles are the jerseys worn by the legendary Orel Hershiser during his rehab starts, now available for discerning collectors.
The Dukes Jersey
The first of these remarkable jerseys is the Dukes shirt, a testament to Hershiser’s enduring legacy. Inside the rear collar, the “Wilson” manufacturer’s tag with wash instructions and jersey size “46” is prominently displayed. Across the front, the bold “DUKES” lettering stands out, while the player number “36” graces both the front and back. The numbers and letters are meticulously crafted in red on white tackle twill, exuding a classic aesthetic. On the right sleeve, the team embroidered patch adds a touch of authenticity.
The Missions Jersey
Complementing the Dukes jersey is the Missions home white shirt, equally rich in history. The “W.A. Goodman” manufacturer’s tag with wash instructions and jersey size “46” is found on the left front tail. The word “Missions” is emblazoned across the front, with the player number “32” adorning the back. The blue on yellow tackle twill used for the numbers and letters adds a vibrant contrast, making this jersey a standout piece.
