Presented here is a great jersey from one of the key figures in the history of the Seattle Mariners franchise Ken Griffey Jr. who electrified the city and the American League with his arrival on the Left Coast following a much-ballyhooed scholastic career. The No. 1 pick in the 1987 amateur draft he quickly established himself as the most exciting player in the game with his debut in Seattle in 1989 and by the time he left for Cincinnati 11 years later the Cooperstown ticket had already been punched. With 630 career home runs 13 All-Star appearances and 10 Gold Gloves The Kid was clearly one of the games brightest stars as the new millennium dawned. This remarkable game-worn alternate jersey traces its roots to those final three seasons in Seattle when Griffey had home run totals of 56 56 and 48. For those of you scoring at home thats an average of 53 homers per year which not surprisingly led the American League all three years. It also got him the 1997 MVP Award. With that giddy pedigree comes this stunning navy blue mesh jersey that is attributed to those final three seasons in Seattle. It has Mariners across the front in navy blue Northwest green and silver tackle twill. Griffey appears across the back in Northwest green and silver same scheme for his famed No. 24 below. The Mariners embroidered patch appears on the left sleeve and Majestic Authentic tagging appears on the front left tail (Size 48) with 48 flag tag below. Griffey has penned his distinctive autograph in blue Sharpie on his No. 24 on the back. The shirt show moderate game use and comes problem-free without alteration.
