Wait A Minute, Reggie Jackson Was A Seattle Mariner???
Well, not actually.
But these images would suggest that he was…
Interesting, huh??
The story goes like this – During the 1979 MLB All-Star Game photo shoot, Reggie had yet to receive his Yankees uniform. So, he donned a Mariners uniform during the pre-game festivities while his correct uniform was in transit to him.
And yes, the Yankees uniform arrived in time for the game’s official start.
**Hat-Tip to loyal ’30-YOC’ reader Matt for sharing this very cool story with me. Thanks Bud!
He should have worn his orioles uniform
That’s a story I hadn’t heard before. Very cool. Thanks for sharing!
I wonder what the story on the guy in front of him with the Rangers jersey and look like a Cubs cap.
Mariner1- I noticed that too. But I was unable to unravel more details.. Sorry.
