Jersey shows good overall usage and wash wear incl. some very minor staining and appropriate age toning. Rice has signed the front in blue sharpie. Recent Hall of Fame inductee Jim Rice continued the tradition of his predecessors, Ted Williams and Carl Yastrzemski, as a power-hitting left fielder who played his entire career for the Red Sox. He ended his career ranked tenth in AL history with 382 home runs; his career marks in homers, hits (2,452), RBI (1,451) and total bases (4,129) remain Red Sox records for a right-handed hitter. Rice teamed with Fred Lynn in the Red Sox' outfield in 1975 to form baseball's most powerful rookie tandem. Rice hit .309 with 22 HR and 102 RBI and Lynn was AL Rookie of the Year and MVP as Boston reached the World Series.
