Mariano Rivera 2000 New York Yankees home white pinstripe game used jersey features "NY" on the front left chest and his number "42" on back sewn in with navy blue tackle twill. The front tail of the jersey features a "Russell Athletic" manufacturer's tag with size 46 size tag as well as a "2 inches of extra length" tag and the one year "YO" swatch indicating "Year 2000" The jersey exhibits quality overall game use. The black Bob Lemon memorial arm band is present on the left sleeve. This is one of Rivera's most sought after jerseys due to the fact that he led the Yankees to a World Series Championship in the "Subway Series" and earned 2 saves in helping the Yankees to another World Championship. Rare opportunity to own an early career Mariano Rivera game used jersey from the prime of his Hall of Fame career. Rivera recorded 652 saves placing him first place all-time. It's highly unlikely another reliever will come along and break this seemingly unbreakable record.
