Hall of Famer Ivan “Pudge” Rodriguez helped lead the Florida Marlins to an upset victory in the 2003 World Series over the New York Yankees. Offered is a complete ensemble of Rodriguez’s game-used catchers equipment from that season. Wilson manufactured shin guards, chest protector and mask. All parts of the ensemble show excellent game use. On the v-neck of the chest protector reads “PUDGE” embroidered in silver with a Rodriguez hologram adjacent. Rodriguez signed the mask and shin guards with the added inscription “GU 03” and in our opinion the signatures rate a combined 7. This catchers gear is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and shows use. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA, a Rodriguez LOA and a JT Sports LOA.
