Minnesota Twins legend Joe Mauer wore this white Fort Myers Miracle home jersey during a seven-game rehabilitation assignment in 2011. Mauer hit well during his brief hiatus in High-A ball, hitting a home run with six RBI and a .261 batting average in 23 at-bats. Mauer’s older brother, Jake, was the manager of the Miracle during Joe’s rehab stint with the team. The 2009 American League MVP played in 82 games in the MLB regular season for the Twins due to complications from offseason knee surgery, although the three-time batting champ hit a solid .287 with three homers and 30 RBI in his 2011 action.

This button-down jersey has “Miracle” sewn on the chest in red and navy tackle twill, with a tan and green palm tree rising out of the “M” and a red and white baseball dotting the “I”. Mauer’s number “45” has been sewn on the chest and back in navy tackle twill. A second “45” is sewn on the back of the jersey, this time in red and navy tackle twill. A MiLB logo patch is sewn on the back outside collar. A circular Twins patch is sewn on the left sleeve. Rawlings, size “52”, and washing instruction flags are present in the back inside collar. A Rawlings tag is also sewn on the front left tail. Mauer has signed the chest of this jersey in blue marker, inscribing “45” in addition to his signature. This jersey comes with a MLB Authenticated hologram (FJ 964435).
