Kirby Puckett’s 12-year career patrolling center pasture for the Minnesota Twins was not devoid of achievement and heroics. The 10-time All-Star led the American League in hits four times, twice in total bases, and once each in batting average and RBI. The man could plain hit, fashioning a lifetime .318 BA, smacking 207 HR, and plating 1,085. On defense Puckett was just a stellar, winning Gold Gloves six out of seven straight seasons.  

Kirby’s 1989 season saw him win the American League batting title with a .339 average and also led the AL in hits with 215. Puckett wore this road gray with navy pinstripes Minnesota Twins jersey during the 1989 season. This button-down jersey was manufactured by Rawlings and is a size 48. “MINNESOTA” and Puckett’s “34” are sewn on the front in red and navy tackle twill. The Rawlings tag with the “SET 1 1989” flag is sewn on the inside back collar. The back of the jersey has “PUCKETT” sewn in navy tackle twill on a matching gray nameplate above his number “34” that is sewn on in red and navy tackle twill. The left sleeve has the Twins logo patch and the right sleeve has “Rawlings” embroidered in navy. This jersey displays light game use and comes with a LOA from noted game used jersey expert Dave Miedema.
