I am hoping some of the S.F. Giants experts like Lon Lewis can help me out on this 1989 Chris Speier jersey that is currently listed on eBay.
In doing some checking it seems that Chris Speier was not on the Giants 1989 world series roster yet this jersey is being listed as game used. The best I can imagine is that he was issued a jersey and sat in the dugout with the team. Is it possible that a WS patch was just sewn onto his regular season jersey which would probably show minimal use? It comes with a Dick Dobbins LOA and from what I've read he was the foremost authority on Giants jerseys. I've never seen a Dobbins LOA but would it indicate what game use this jersey has or anything like that?
Any insight or thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks!
