MIKE STANTON was with the New York Yankees from 1998 through 2002, winning three World Series championships in that short span. Stanton pitched in one game of the 1999 World Series and did not allow a run. On the left front tail is the "Russell" manufacturers tag with the jersey size "48" on it. Attached to that is a flag tag with "100% POLYESTER" on it. Adjacent to that is an additional tag with "STANTON-99" on it. Across the front of the jersey is "NEW YORK." On the back is the player number "29." All lettering and numbering is done in blue on white tackle twill. On the right sleeve is the embroidered official "1999 World Series" logo patch. On the left sleeve is a black armband and a number "5" in black tackle twill worn in memory of Yankee greats Catfish Hunter and Joe DiMaggio. The "5" has been moved higher when the other armband was added later in the season. The jersey shows game-use and appears to have no other alterations of any kind. Accompanied by a Yankees-Steiner Collectibles COA.
