This lot features a New York Yankees home white pinstripe jersey worn by Yankee Captain and the newest member of baseball's 3,000 Hit Club, Derek Jeter, during the 2007 baseball season. The jersey has Jeter's number "2" on the back and a black armband and black number "10" on the left sleeve: the armband is in remembrance of Cory Lidle and the number is "10" to honor the passing of Yankees icon Phil Rizzutto. The fact that this jersey has the "10" memorial patch of Rizzuto holds special significance to Yankees fans as Rizzuto and Jeter were the 2 greatest shortstops and winners in team history. There is a Majestic label on the front left tail above a size 48 hang tag and a very faded 2007 year tag. A "0062" wash tag is sewn inside the left seam. Accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity from game used expert Lou Lampson grading the jersey a GU 9.5 as well as a Yankees-Steiner Collectibles Letter of Authenticity.
