Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

What is with the Mark Buerhle Grey Road Jersey from BPH on ebay. Sems reasonable but has been on there for ever. Is it because of Marks liking to the Black Jerseys?

Just curious.

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

The ebay jersey is probably an 'extra'. The tagging should read 35-50-93-1. Also, Frank was closer to a 46 to 48 back in 1993 when he was a more agile player.

I'm not saying the jersey is bad, but it's very possible it's no good. Any enterprising forger can take an 'extra' jersey and create a fake. Ever wonder why most of the 'extra' jerseys are for Hall of Famers? Think about it......

Thanks for the feedback on this one Mike! It is much appreciated.

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

I'm not an expert, but a few things stand out to me. The tagging looks right, and there was no nameplate for the pinstripes for that year. BUT, I thought he was a size 48.....I believe my game issue is a 48, but I don't remember since it's been at my framers getting box framed.

Hope someone else chimes as I'd like to know what they think themselves. Not because I want to bid on it, but I'd like to get more educated on such things!

Thanks Desi....Same here. Trying to get some education. I am looking for a nice Thomas GU jersey, but want to buy a very solid one. This one is not that, IMO. Maybe it is the photos, but the jersey just doesn't look like a 50 (or 48) it appears too short and too wide.

Also, the tagging seems inconsistent. The team tag looks brand new, but the Diamond Collection and material tags looks very well worn.

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

Any one have an opinion on this "game used" Thomas jersey?

Looks questionable to me on a few fronts:

Over 1K for sure maybe close to 2K? Definitely one of a kind. 1 of 1 to be exact. I was hoping I wouldn't see it until after Sox fest so I can see what other PK 2012 jerseys are out there. I really don't want to break open the vault for this one. May the best Fan Win!

While some players like Konerko wear Knit jerseys almost exclusively.

There's a Konerko 1972 jersey that's on MLB.com Auctions:

Any Collectors go 2 the Rosemont Convention Center Today?

2005 WS Champs Jose Contreras, Scott Podsednik, & Cliff Politte were in attendence.

Had Jose sign his 2005 Vest, 2008 Black Alternate and his 1929 Road Throwback Jersey worn in 2009.

Funny how it seems like no one remembers when Contreras was the best pitcher in baseball from the 2nd half of 05 through the 1st half of 06 and the horse of the pitching staff through the 05 Playoffs.

Mark Buehrle gets a lot of South Side love, and rightfully so, but he was never as good as Contreras was in that year time frame. He was basically unhittable. Great collection of jerseys. I have Contreras' home white jersey from 2006 with the World Series champions patch.

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

I remember I use to hate when it was his turn in the rotation to take the mound. I use to chalk it up as a loss lol.. Coop must of did something after the all star break, it seemed like all his arm angles were untouchable. If Im not mistaken he won almost 20 straight going into the '06 season. There were some no decisions in between though.

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

Stoped by the Cell Again this Time 2 Pick-Up this MLB Auction Won Harold Baines Set #1 Knit version of the 1972 Throwbacks Jersey's worn on Sunday Home Games in 2012.

Joe
It looks like you were correct in your assumptions that Set #1 were the Knit Jersey's and Set #2 Were the Coolbase Jersey's 4 the 72 Throwbacks.

Awesome. So the 1972 throwbacks were made both in knit and cool base?

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

AWESOME Pierzynski collection!!!

Good luck! Those are awesome shirts. For as much as I love them, I have to ask: Why the red color scheme? Someone who is not familiar with uniforms might think that they are Red Sox, not White Sox jerseys...any idea the reason for the color scheme?
