VERY IMPORTANT:
Please do not confuse or compare the above jersey we are selling to other similar Majestic Cooperstown “Cool Base” jerseys being sold by other sellers online. The Majestic jersey we are selling above is made in the USA of “100% Heavyweight Polyester Fabric” which is of far superior quality to the much lighter and “flimsy” “Cool Base” jerseys being sold elsewhere. As well the jersey we are selling features the team logos, and Players name & numbers fully stitched on the jersey, whereas the “Cool Base” jerseys feature the team logos “Printed” on the jersey. Although the jerseys may look the same, there is no comparison in quality
Sammy Sosa: Home Run Legend
A Sammy Sosa Jersey is a must have for any die hard Cubs fan, or home run enthusiast. Sosa was the 5th player to hit 600 career home runs, and remains one of only 9 players to ever reach that number. Playing most of his long career for the Chicago Cubs, Sammy Sosa played the game from 1989 to 2007. Throughout his career, he was perpetually locked in a heated home run race with fellow sluggers Mark McGwire and Barry Bonds.
The 1998 home run race with McGwire was the stuff of legend, with Sosa putting up 66 home runs in a season, and McGwire beating him slightly with 70, smashing Roger Maris’s long-standing record of 61, set in 1961.
A Sammy Sosa Cubs jersey carries the number 21, chosen by Sosa in honor of the great Roberto Clemente, who wore the number for the Pittsburgh Pirates from 1956 through 1972. The number 21 signals greatness, both in baseball and on NFL jerseys. A Sosa Jersey is a great collector’s item for a Cubs fan – make sure it’s quality, as it will be a memento you can pass on to future generations of Cubs fans.
