I have a 1989 Baltimore Orioles from a team employee. The jersey has a number change, and is #8 now, instead of #52. The employees nephew said the jersey was a gift and it was worn by Cal.

The jersey has a rawlings tag on the inside tail, and is a size 46 (AMI sold one from 1989 that was a size 48 though). The jersey has a set 1 1989 tag, and above it, has a T sewn nest to the rawlings tag.

My friend was under the impression the T meant the jersey was transferred from one player to another. Does anybody know anything about what the T tag stands for?
