One of my most wanted jerseys finally fell into my hands this week and couldn't be any more happy with this pickup. This is a Toronto Blue Jays alternate jersey of their greatest pitcher in franchise history; Roy "Doc" Halladay.
The older run Majestic Athletic jerseys were the best in my opinion. The logo on the chest is fully embroidered. The details on the back are done up in double and triple layered pro tackle twill. A real standout is the top silver material of the numbers.
Born on May 14, 1977 in Denver, CO, Harry Leroy Halladay III was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in 1995 and made his pro debut in 1998. His first career win came in a one-hit game on September 27. In 2002, he made his first All-Star Game appearance and won the the American League Cy Young Award the next year. In 2010, "Doc" was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies.
After a four year run in the National League, Roy Halladay signed a 1-day contract with the Toronto Blue Jays and announced his retirement to finish his career with the club he started with. Upon retiring, he compiled a 203-105 W-L record, 3.38 earned run average, 2117 strikeouts, 67 complete games, and 20 shutouts.
