The brief career of fireballing righthander Mark Prior was extraordinarily bittersweet with emphasis perhaps to the former as the hopes for a Chicago Cub ace were dashed after but five seasons due to recurring injuries and several attendant surgeries. This wonderful jersey was worn in that rookie campaign in 2002 when hopes were still high and potential seemed unlimited: indeed in the following year he would go 18-6 and strike out 245 batters as beleaguered Cubs fans imagined a rotation headed by Prior and Kerry Wood that would dominate the National League Central Division for years to come. The white knit pinstripe jersey features the Cubs insignia patch upon the left breast with Prior's No. 22 appearing on the reverse. "Prior" is lettered on the reverse with all letters and numbers in blue with red trim tackle twill. A "Cubs" patch appears on the left sleeve directly above the embroidered Majestic logo. Situated on the left front tail are both a "Majestic Authentic Collection" label and a "48" size tag. "22 48 01" (denoting the number size year and set No. respectively) is stitched in black upon a white tag in the collar. The jersey which is original and unaltered displays light to moderate game wear and is problem free.
