The 2002 Pujols jersey offered by Historic Auctions seems to have two major problems.
First, the number on the front is HUGE. On 2002 Cardinals jerseys, the number starts 1" below the logo (about even with the button) and doesn't reach the button below. On this Pujols, the number extends beyond the bottom of that next button. Seems to be one of the older Cardinals uni numbers -- they switched to a smaller number (about 3 7/8" tall) a few years back, before 2002.
And second, there is WAY too much material on the name plate extending beyond the letters. On 2002 Cardinals jerseys, the plate extends beyond the letters about 5/16". It looks likes there's a good inch of material on both sides of "Pujols."
These are red flags...
