This item comes from the a guy I know who was once Screech, the Washington Nationals Mascot.

It's the exact same jersey worn by players that night and was manufactured as part of the same batch, but was never worn. The Nats basically gave it to him after the game. The back has BB for batboy. Let's start bidding at $150

This is an awesome item. To get it going, let's lower the opening bid to $100

[jose melendez]

Hmmm... No bids so far... Negro League jersery... I think we can all do the math here...

That's right, I'm playing the race card!

Size?

[jose melendez]

44 which is apparently an "L" in letters

FWIW, a 44 chest is a large MLB jersey, a 44 waist is a 2XL MLB Jersey (according to their site, in men's sizes). I'm not sure whether the 44 stands for chest or waist, I suspect chest (making an extra 2XL jersey seems like an odd choice).

[jose melendez]

There's no way it's a 44 waist, it's chest.

So now that there's a bid on the Hawaiian winter league shirt, all we have left is an unbid on beautiful Negro League Jersey... and yet no bids. Wonder why?

Race Card! RACE CARD!!! RACE CARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Does it say "Homestead" on the front?

[jose melendez]

No, it says GRAYS on the front. The picture above is the front.

I'll bid $100. It's probably too big for me.

Good opening bid. We need a better bid though.

[absintheofmalaise]

$150

[Deathofthebambino]

$200

[jose melendez]

Congrats DoTB and thanks to absinthe for allowing us to accept the late bid. Send the $200 in, and I will have Screech send you the shirt.

Jose, this should be all set, sorry for the delay. Been crazy lately. Let me know if I screwed it up.

[jose melendez]

Confirmed!
