Late 70s Bill Madlock Pittsburg Pirates Jersey. Pullover. Size Lrg. Black/yellow

Based on my research, this jersey dates from the beginning of Madlocks career with the Pirates because it wasn't until the early 80s that they started adding players' last names to the Jersey. Made in Canada. It features "PIRATES" sewn in yellow satin tackle-twill across the chest, as well as the number 5 on the back. sz. Large, however, I'd say it runs on the small side. If one had to summarize Bill Madlock’s career in song, the best two numbers to choose would be Noël Coward’s “Mad Dogs and Englishmen” and Duke Ellington’s “It Don’t Mean a Thing if You Ain’t Got That Swing.” The former because “Mad Dog” was his nickname, the latter because it took only one cut for a scout to see that Madlock did indeed have that swing. He also had a lot of intestinal fortitude, overcoming a difficult upbringing to becoming a four-time batting champion and the owner of a World Series ring with the Pirates in 1979. He became the first player in MLB history to capture more than one batting title with two different teams: two with the Chicago Cubs and two more with the Pirates.
