In the summer of 1995, the baseball world was electrified by the arrival of Hideo Nomo, a pitcher whose signature tornado-style delivery left Major League hitters baffled. Nomo’s impact was immediate and unforgettable, as he quickly became one of the most talked-about players in the MLB. His dominant showing in the 1995 All-Star Game, striking out four of the six batters he faced, showcased his extraordinary talent and earned him the National League Rookie of the Year Award.

This exceptional jersey captures the essence of Nomo’s historic rookie season and is a true treasure for collectors. Key features include:

• Manufacturer’s Tag: The back tail features the “RUSSELL ATHLETIC” size 50 tag with full wash instructions.

• Material and Length: Attached tags indicate 100% POLYESTER, 2” EXTRA LENGTH, and the ‘95 year strip.

• Team and Player Identification: The front displays “DODGERS” in blue tackle twill, with Nomo’s #16 in red tackle twill below. The back features “NOMO” in blue on white tackle twill, with the number 16 beneath.

• Additional Features: The right sleeve proudly bears the Russell embroidered logo, adding authenticity to this remarkable piece.

This jersey is presented as game-used, showing signs of on-field action but appearing completely unaltered. It stands as a pristine example of Nomo’s early career achievements and is a highly sought-after item for serious sports memorabilia collectors.

Hideo Nomo’s influence extends far beyond his rookie season. As one of the first Japanese players to make a significant mark in Major League Baseball, he paved the way for future international stars. His success inspired countless fans and opened doors for talented athletes worldwide to pursue their dreams in the MLB.

For collectors, owning a piece of Nomo’s legacy is more than acquiring a jersey—it’s a chance to celebrate a transformative era in baseball history.
