Over 16 seasons in the major leagues from 1960 to 75 Juan Marichal recorded 243 victories and 2303 career strikeouts. His best season on record came in 1968 while pitching for the San Francisco Giants; he led the league in victories (26) complete games (30) and innings pitched (325.2). Besides being named an All-Star for the seventh straight season Marichal finished fifth in the National League MVP balloting behind Bob Gibson Pete Rose Willie McCovey and Curt Flood.
This lot features Marichals 1968 San Francisco Giants game-worn home jersey. The jersey is in magnificent all-original condition and shows excellent game use including some noticeable fraying of the numbers and letters on the front and back. Each of its various elements remain intact from the perfectly positioned G-I-A-N-T-S team name across the front in black tackle twill letters outlined in orange to his uniform number 27 in like fashion on the reverse. The jersey shows the McAuliffe tag on the front-left tail just above two smaller sewn-on tags indicating the season (68") and the jersey size (42). On the inside of the rear collar is a separate sewn-on name tag spelling out Marichal in script orange chain-stitched lettering. All seven original buttons on the front of the jersey remain intact. Though widely remembered for an on-the-field fracas in 1965 with Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Johnny Roseboro Marichal was eventually elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1983. He earned 313 votes (83.7%) from the Baseball Writers Association of America (BBWAA).
