Another recent pick up, 1999 Merv Rettenmund. Couple stints as batting coach for the Padres. Ex Big Red Machine. Decent pinch hitter.

Rickey made many a fan in San Diego. Breaking the runs scored record (on a homer no less) and getting the 3,000th hit all at the end of Tony's last season. That was a fun year.

PS: Is this the Henderson you got from the you know who with the Padres?

Here's a photo with more detail. Interesting pattern. I believe all MLB ST jerseys have this pattern.

All the other teams are doing the same thing. If you notice the teams are using the same jerseys throughout the start of spring training and they have the patch on the sleeve this is the reason why.

Yes RC, this is the Henderson jersey I purchased from the Padres back in the day, as well as this beautiful 1996 'Hammered with use' Henderson bat. Rickey gots game baby!!
