Mark Teixeira wore this home size 48 Majestic button-down pinstripe New York Yankees home jersey on August 26, 2015, a 6-2 Yankee loss to the visiting Houston Astros. Teixeira came on in the bottom of the ninth inning for second baseman Brendan Ryan and grounded out to the pitcher for the final out of the game. Teixeira finished the 2015 season with 31 home runs and 79 RBI. Earlier in the season, Teixeira was named to his third and final All-Star team.

     “Tex,” who retired at the end of the 2016 season, was one of the 2000’s most feared hitters, compiling eight straight seasons with 30 home runs and 100 RBI. The big first baseman finished his career with 409 home runs. This jersey features the Yanks’ interlocking “NY” logo on the front left breast, sewn on the jersey in navy blue tackle twill. Teixeira’s number “25” is sewn on the back in navy blue tackle twill. Teixeira signed the “5” digit in silver Sharpie, adding the inscription “Game Used ’15.” A silver and navy MLB logo is sewn on the outside of the back collar. A Majestic tag with “2015,” “[size] 48,” and “Taper” flags is sewn on the front left tail of the jersey. This jersey comes with an MLB Authenticated hologram (HZ 977172) which authenticates the jersey for the August 26th game and a LOA from Steiner Sports (225250). There is also a COA from PSA/DNA (AB16507) for the signature.
