Oakland Athletics outfielder Claudell Washington wore this white A’s pullover home jersey during the 1976 MLB season, his third and final season with Oakland. Washington helped the A’s win 87 games, batting .257 with five homers, 53 RBI, and 37 stolen bases. This pullover jersey has “A’s” sewn on the left chest in gold and green tackle twill. Washington’s number “15” is sewn on the back of the jersey in gold and green tackle twill. Please note that Washington’s name has been removed from the back of the jersey, likely for recycling the jersey in the minor leagues. A United States Bicentennial patch is sewn on the left sleeve. A minute rip in the jersey fabric is present above the patch. “1976”, size “42”, McAuliffe, and washing instructions tags are sewn on the front tail of this jersey. This jersey shows moderate to heavy wear and comes with a LOA from noted game used jersey expert Dave Miedema.
