After retiring from basketball in 1994, Michael Jordan spent the next year pursuing a childhood dream to play professional baseball. He signed a minor league contract with the Chicago White Sox of the American League, reported to spring training, and was assigned to the minor league affiliate Birmingham Barons. In the 1994 season he recorded 51 RBI and 30 SB. On the front left tail is the Wilson manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions and two attached flag tags reading the size “48” and “FX”. On the left sleeve is the White Sox team organization logo patch. On the right sleeve is the minor league variation of the MLB “Professional Baseball 125th anniversary”. Across the front reads “Barons” in script style writing. Below and across the back is the player number “45”. All numbering and lettering is done in black on grey tackle twill. The jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used, and in our opinion shows appropriate use.
