I just won a 2008 Red Sox Paul Byrd white jersey. It was listed as "end of the season". When I opened it up I was surprised to see much of the entire jersey had yellow staining (front, back, neck- everywhere). This isn't like washed out grass stains, or dirt stains- these stains are yellow- like pee yellow. The size tag is also stained yellow. Also the left sleeve has weird dark marks that look more like they should belong on a hockey jersey (very stick-mark-esq). Any ideas on what is going on with this jersey??? Photos from Byrd's playoff appearances do not show any staining on his jersey- so maybe the staining is from the beer and champagne showers when they wrapped up a playoff spot?? (and another jersey was used during ther playoffs?). 1 other odd thing: there is no year or number tagging on the front- just the "48". Why would the front tagging be missing the usual info?
The pictures aren't all that clear, but you can get a good idea of what I'm talking about. I will try to post them in this post too- below. If anytone out there has any input on what the yellow or dark staining is from, and the tagging issue, I greatly appreciate it!

) I'm truly baffled at this point. I don't know whether to be happy about this purchase because it's unique, or if I should be upset because of the staining and lack of tagging....
