New York Yankees right fielder Aaron Judge wore this New York Yankees road jersey during the Covid-shortened 2020 Major League Baseball season where the famed slugger batted .257 with nine home runs and 22 RBI in 28 games. This jersey has been photo matched by Sports Investors Authentication where Judge wore this jersey on July 26th, 29th, August 5th during the second game of a double-header, again on August 8th during the first game of a double-header, on August 9th, and September 30th. In those six games, Judge combined to go 6-for-23 with 5 runs, 2 home runs, 4 RBI, 2 walks, and one hit-by-pitch.
Presented here is a six-button gray New York Yankees road jersey worn by Aaron Judge during five regular season games and an MLB Wild Card round game against the Cleveland Indians on September 30th. The jersey features “NEW YORK” sewn on across the chest in navy-on-white tackle twill. Navy and white stripes adorn each sleeve, with the left sleeve of the jersey featuring a black “HGS” patch in honor of the late New York Yankees co-owner, Hank Steinbrenner. A black Nike “Swoosh” logo is affixed to the upper right chest on the front of the jersey. A Nike “MLB Authentic Collection” manufacturing tag is located on the jersey’s left front tail. A New York Yankees barcode (0000011484) appears on the jersey’s left front tail. A Nike “MLB Authentic Collection” tag with a QR code is affixed to the jersey’s left front tail. A plastic MLB logo in white, navy, and silver is affixed to the back of the jersey under the collar. The number “99” appears on the back of the jersey in navy-on-white tackle twill. Judge signed and inscribed “GU 2020 Playoffs” on the left “9” on the back of the jersey with a silver marker. The signature and inscription are bold, and the jersey displays evidence of game that features rub wear on the front of the jersey and several loose threads throughout. This game used jersey comes with an LOA from Sports Investors Authentication (210110A2) who photo matched this jersey to six games. There is an MLB Authenticated hologram (JD769572) and two Fanatics Authenticated holograms (AA0061857) (B043006). Please note that the MLB hologram lists this jersey as team-issued, a common designation for items collected after the season and/or not collected directly from the player.
