When Hall of Famer Ted Williams was asked what he saw when he watched fell HOFer, Paul Molitor, the Splendid Splinter’s response was: “I see Joe DiMaggio.” The accompanying letter from Game Used Gamers, states in part “The above Paul Molitor game used jersey was originally sourced directly from Paul Molitor. This 1997 Molitor has been conclusively photo-matched to an 8x10 photo of Molitor taken during the 1997 season. During his 1997 campaign, Molitor managed a .305 batting average in 135 games! The aforementioned 8x10 also accompanies the lot. On the front left tail of this blue knit, is the MLB Diamond / RUSSELL ATHLETIC size 44 label, with three tags attached: 100% POLYESTER - +1” Armhole Opening - 1” Extra Sleeve Length. Inside the back of the neck is a set tag reading: 4-97-1. “MINNESOTA” across the chest and player name (MOLITOR) on a blue nameplate across the back - both done in white on red tackle twill. Player number (4) on the front / back, in red on white tackle twill. Twins disc patch on the left sleeve. Jackie Robinson 50th patch on the right sleeve. Molitor has signed the right abdomen in silver marker “Paul Molitor HOF 04”, in our opinion rating an 8 and there is an added inscription below: “1997 ‘Game Used’”. This jersey is properly tagged, presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate wear. Also accompanied by a full JSA LOA.
