This lot features Ortiz’s game worn, autographed and inscribed Boston Red Sox road jersey from his final campaign. In fact, this jersey was worn by the slugger on Sept. 16, 2016, against the Baltimore Orioles, a game in which Ortiz went 1-for-3 with two walks, a single and one RBI (No. 122 on the season). His efforts helped the BoSox nail down a 5-3 victory over the O’s that night at Camden Yards. The offered gray polyester size 50 jersey reads “BOSTON” across the chest in arched red on navy blue tackle twill and includes proper “Majestic Authentic Collection” manufacturer’s tagging on the left front tail. A separate washing instructions tag appears on the inside left inseam. The Red Sox ageless embroidered team logo appears on the left sleeve. The back of the jersey reads “ORTIZ” across the shoulders in red on navy blue tackle twill with his uniform number “34” situated just below it in similar tackle twill fashion with the numerals stretching seven inches tall. Ortiz has signed the number “4” in silver marker and added his stat line for the day: “1-3.” On the adjoining number “3” it is inscribed with the following text, also in silver marker: “GAME USED 9/22/16 FINAL SEASON.” Along the lower inside placket of the jersey rests the official MLB Majestic Authentic Collection game-used bar code (#BQR3). The official red, white and blue MLB logo appears on the outside rear collar. All six original buttons remain intact.
Includes MLB Authentication hologram (#JB848201) and Fanatics Authentic hologram (#AA0004962) certifying it’s game use. LOA from Resolution Photomatching with conclusive side-by-side photo-match. The autograph pre-certified by PSA/DNA.
