After the printing of this catalog, New York Yankees’ phenom Aaron Judge has continued his monster season and the big right fielder has already broken the New York Yankees rookie home run record previously held by Joe DiMaggio and did so before the All-Star break. Judge also won the Home Run Derby, defeating Justin Bour, Cody Bellinger and Miguel Sano hitting a total of 47 home runs, with two bombs blasted over 500 feet.

     Officially the largest position player to every put on a uniform at 6’7” and 282 pounds, Aaron Judge did not take long to endear himself to the New York Yankees faithful. With tremendous expectations placed on the young outfielder, Judge has proven that the old Teddy Roosevelt adage “speak softly and carry a big stick” will serve him well. As a budding superstar who is on pace to win the American League Rookie of the Year and possibly the AL MVP as well, the soft spoken Judge’s popularity in a short time includes a section in right field at Yankees Stadium called the “Judges’ Chambers”.

     Judge opened his 2017 season with the Yankees at Tampa Bay on April 2nd. Despite losing 7-3 to the Rays on Opening Day, Judge managed to crack the lone extra-base hit of the game for the Yankees as he lined a Chris Archer pitch to left field that scored Starlin Castro for his first RBI of the season and the Yankees first run of the season.

     Offered is the very jersey worn by Judge during his first game of the 2017 season. As expected with a player the size of Judge, this Majestic FlexBase button down road gray jersey is a size 52. “NEW YORK” is arched across the chest in navy blue and white tackle twill. Judge’s “99” is sewn on the back of the jersey in the same navy blue and white tackle twill. A vinyl MLB logo patch in navy blue, white and gray is sewn on the upper back neck. The bottom front left tail has the screen printed Majestic size 52 FlexBase tag. Below the Majestic tag is a New York Yankees barcode tag (0000007770) and vertically along the buttons is an additional Majestic screen-printed tag that reads "2017 52T +2 B". As with the new FlexBase models, a gray mesh section is attached to the bottom back tail. The jersey displays light use and comes with a full LOA from Steiner Sports and a MLB Authenticated hologram (JC156015). What an opportunity to own what will most likely be the first jersey of the season worn by the 2017 American League Rookie of the Year and MVP!
