What did Sparky wear with the 1980 Phillies?

Thanks to Howard Wolf, we have a look-see.

Lyle joined the Phillies roughly two months after the previous wearer of the #39, Lerrin LaGrow, was released. LaGrow's gamers were issued to Lyle, with NOB change, but with the NIC untouched, as photos show:


He wore #39 in 1981 spring training, and it's unsure whether he still wore these jerseys or a 1981 tagged #39, as once viewed at MEARS and currently in the Grey Flannel auction. But, for 1980's pennant drive, this was it.

Thanks for the photos, Howard.

What did Sparky wear?!?! Hopefully, clothing.

You mean he doesn't have the dream Nuke Lalouche had in Bull Durham?:

"I dreamed that I was naked. Playing naked."
