Jim Fregosi was an All-Star shortstop during an 18-year baseball career with four different teams most notably with the Los Angeles and California Angels. In that franchise's first 11 years of play he became its first star as the team's most productive and popular player. He led the American League in double plays twice winning the 1967 Gold Glove Award and upon leaving the team ranked ninth in AL history with 818 double plays. He holds the franchise record with 70 career triples; several of his other team records including career games hits doubles runs and runs batted in were broken by Brian Downing between 1986 and 1989. He returned to the team as manager guiding it to its first-ever postseason appearance in 1979 and later managed the Philadelphia Phillies to the 1993 National League pennant. This representation is a California Angels road flannel worn by Fregosi during the 1968 season. The sleeve endings and collar are trimmed with a red/midnight navy braid. The McAuliffe manufacturer's tag appears on left-front tail with "68" and "44" (Size) smaller tags attached below. The jersey front sports the team nickname Angels in old English font with red felt on midnight navy. The back No. 11 is in red felt on midnight navy. The jersey shows game use and is in fine condition and problem free. It's truly a handsome gamer from one of the great players from the earliest years of the franchise.
Includes a Letter of Provenance from The Newport Sports Museum.
