The following item was just listed on ebay. I don't think the Braves wore this style pullover...ever, right? What then, might it be from? A minor league Braves team? I could be wrong, but I just couldn't find any photos of them wearing this style jersey in the 80's.

Re: Mad Hungarian Jersey?
Hrabosky signed with the White Sox in 1983 but retired before the season started. So no way that is his in any way. I tried looking to see who was #39 for Richmond in 1983 but i cannot find a numerical roster.Comment

Re: Mad Hungarian Jersey?
The Braves front on a 1979-86 Braves road gamer is the sign of a jersey once made for the MLB Braves but having a front script change from the city name to the team nickname for extra use in the Braves farm system, often at Richmond. With the alteration of the front script and the 83 year tag, it wouldn't have been used at Richmond til 1984, at the earliest.

Re: Mad Hungarian Jersey?
Dave - Great info! So they probably wouldn't have changed the year tag (or would they?), so the best working theory is that it was a 1983 Braves gamer that was then turned into a Richmond Braves jersey? The seller is calling it a 1982 jersey, so is he/she going on the assumption that the year tag was changed? They don't mention that in the description.Comment

Re: Mad Hungarian Jersey?
I recently came across this jersey on ebay and the seller took the advice of this forum and wrote a long paragraph at the end of his description based on the findings here. Appears to be very honest and reputable; just didn't know what he had.Looking for ...
