As in 1951 when Bobby Thomson crushed the spirits of the Brooklyn faithful, the 1980 Dodgers lost a rare playoff game - this time in Los Angeles to Vern Ruhle and the Houston Astros. Still, it was a successful season at Chavez Ravine, thanks in large part to perennial All-Star first baseman Steve Garvey. His name highlights the reverse of this jersey with WA Goodman and Sons makers tag in the collar. There's also a 1980 All-Star Game patch. The snazzy jersey is in EX-MT condition.
