Description: Javier Baez blue knit jersey featuring "BAEZ" across the back in navy blue tackle twill on a light blue name plate as well as "SMOKIES" across the chest and his number "9" on both sides, all in blue-on-red tackle twill. The "Wilson" manufacturer's tag is affixed to the inside neck collar along with the size 46 tag. The Cubs walking bear patch adorns the left sleeve while the Tennessee Smokies team logo patch is located on the right sleeve. Name change on back as the jersey was worn by a different player in 2012 which is very common with minor league jerseys. The jersey shows moderate evidence of game use.
Accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity from noted game used jersey expert Dave Miedema authenticating its use. Miedema concludes: "After a thorough examination of this Javier Baez game used jersey, it is my opinion that this jersey is authentic as described and can be attributed to being used by Baez during the 2013 season while playing in the Minor Leagues with the Tennessee Smokies."
