Road Atlanta Braves jersey? No...road Atlanta braves jerseys have always had "Atlanta" on front. This is obviously a Minor League Braves jersey...Richmond Braves, Rome Braves etc...

Originally posted by sox83cubs84I alerted my superiors at MEARS to that and several other goofs in the ID and writeups of their most recent eBay auction items. Not sure who made all the goofs, but it was highly unlikely that Troy did these...most likely a newer staffer.

Re: Mears Auction....Wrong Identification
I can't answer that, as I've not yet been to the new facility. For reasons I will not go into here, I've never really felt like trekking north to do it.

Re: Mears Auction....Wrong Identification
Warren Spahn wore #21 for the Braves up to 1964 when they were still in Milwaukee. They moved to Atlanta in 1966.
According to Baseball Almanac, NO PLAYER EVER WORE #21 for the Atlanta Braves.
I double checked through other Braves resources and specifically from 1990 until 1999, no player wore #21 for the Atlanta Braves. #21 was then retired by the Braves for Warren Spahn when he was inducted into the Braves HOF in August 1999.
I don;t what this jersey is but it for sure is NOT a Game Used Atlanta Braves jersey.Comment
