Rudy -

Bizarre... even worse than the sleeve patch:

Spring 2006 Auction - Jersey Tag:

I'd be more inclined to think the Spring 2006 Set 1 Jersey is the 'Real Deal' based on the Set 1 tagging and the fact that the Auction Description states:


Some pine tar stains also present. "Purchased From San Francisco Giants" stamped inside. This jersey originally was purchased from the late great Dick Dobbins.

And I found this Getty Images Picture (83464149) of Roger Craig and Tony LaRussa exchanging Line-Ups before the 1990 All Star Game:

CHICAGO, IL - JULY 10, 1990: Manager Roger Craig, left, of the National league San Francisco Giants shakes hands with Manager Tony La Russa, right, of the American league Oakland Athletics during player introduction at the 1990 MLB All Star Game at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois.

It clearly shows the ASG Patch on the Right Sleeve above the Rawlings Logo on Roger Craig's Giants jersey... I would have to believe Clark's would have been done identical to his Manager's.
