Thurman Munson New York Yankees Deluxe Framed Majestic Cooperstown Jersey

Munson made only one error while behind the plate in 1971 (he was knocked unconscious by a runner, dislodging the ball). He went on to win three straight Gold Glove Awards starting in 1973. A seven-time All-Star, Munson hit 113 home runs, batted in 701 runners, and had a career batting average of .292 over his 10-year career. He was also the first captain named by the Yankees since Lou Gehrig. Munson helped lead his team to three consecutive World Series (1976a 78), where he batted a remarkable .373 overall (.339 in the American League Championship Series). From 1975-77, Munson hit .300 or better with 100 or more RBI each year, becoming the first catcher to accomplish the feat in three consecutive years since Yankee Hall of Famer Bill Dickey did it four straight seasons from 1936-39. Each Majestic Cooperstown jersey is beautifully framed in suede alongside laser cut team logos, hand crafted stat banner, a facsimile laser cut signature and 2 classic 8x10 photos. Officially licensed by Major League Baseball. Measures 36" x 42". This Product Makes a Great Holiday Gift!
