A discussion has started. Did Rusty Staub ever wear this uniform? I was ready to wink and nod and pretend its a 1975 road jersey but it’s too white for that.
Discuss!

Once again this would be part of my fantasy job with the Mets where they just run everything thru my office. I don’t actually want a job with the Mets but I like to pretend the Bobblehead guys come in and I point stuff like this out.

Update Wednesday morning: some folks are trying to convince me this is a 1975 road jersey and that the lighting is bad.
I guess we will see on Saturday but I find it hard to imagine that there was a concerted effort to honor the 1970’s with a 1975 road jersey (Rusty wore 10 in 1975′ 4 previously with the Mets, and 10 in the 80’s). Then once they did they were victims of bad lighting.
But hey we’ll see, and I love these discussion.
Now do I really care? Well I like things to be accurate, but it’s not like I kick my dog over a bobble head. I was pretty fired up about Lady Met but there were a few open beer bottles nest to the laptop last night.
Man this stuff is fun.
