New York Mets pullover warmup jacket worn by Darryl Strawberry during the mid-1980s. This garment comes with the provenance of originating directly from Strawberry's personal collection and has been signed by Strawberry in silver paint pen (grading 7/10) on the reverse. The blue mesh short-sleeve warm-up jersey features the Mets team logo patch on the left breast (orange chenille on blue tackle twill). The name "Strawberry" appears on the reverse, while his uniform number 18 adorns the right sleeve. All letters and numerals are applied in orange on white embroidery. A New York Mets team patch is located on the left sleeve. A "Starter XXL" label appears in the collar. These warmup jackets were normally worn by the players during pregame warmups and when sitting on the bench. The offered garment is original as issued and displays moderate wear. Strawberry began his Major League career with the Mets in 1983 and remained with the club through the 1990 season, during which time he won the Rookie of the Year Award and appeared in seven All-Star Games. He also helped lead the club to its second World Championship in franchise history in 1986. He retired after the 1999 season with 335 home runs, 1,000 RBI, and a .259 lifetime average.
