The Hall of Fame centerfielder Kirby Puckett wore this navy Minnesota Twins cap during his sophomore season of 1985. Building on a successful rookie campaign, Puckett hit .288, with the first four home runs of his Major League career and 74 RBI. Puckett notched career-highs in triples (13) and stolen bases (21) in his sophomore season while leading baseball in at-bats, with 691. Puckett retired after the 1995 season and was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2001 on his first ballot. This offered Twins cap is navy, with the Twins “TC” logo sewn on the front in red and white letters. A New Era tag and a MLB flag are sewn in the sweatband. Puckett’s number “34” is handwritten in black marker on the underside of the brim on this size “7” hat. Puckett has signed the underside of the brim in blue marker, inscribing “#34” below his signature. This cap shows excellent use and it comes with a LOA from JT Sports for the use and a LOA from JSA (Z67423) for Puckett’s signature.
