Offered is a San Diego Padres road jersey dating to hurler Rick Wise's final big league season in 1982. Wilson size 44 tag sewn to collar of jersey with various handwritten notations present while a strip reading "40 82" is sewn to the tail. "Padres" sewn across chest of the brown knit jersey in yellow on orange double tackle twill while the reverse features number 40 sewn in the same fashion and a restored "Wise" nameplate. Heavy use shown, which combined with the restored nameplate and notations on the manufacturer's tag indicates this jersey likely saw extended organizational use following the 1982 season. (72Z0217)
