Autographed Don Larsen New York Yankees Pinstripe Baseball Jersey JSA COA — Born Michigan City Indiana, October 8 1956 Yankee Stadium Game 5 World Series Only Perfect Game in World Series History 27 Brooklyn Dodgers Retired in Order No Hits No Walks No Errors, Yogi Berra Caught It — Unframed, Your Frame Your Wall

The New York Yankees pinstripe. The most iconic baseball uniform in the world — the jersey that has been worn by Ruth and Gehrig and DiMaggio and Mantle and Jeter, the pinstripe that represents the history of the game more than any other fabric in any other sport. Signed by Don Larsen — not a Hall of Famer, not a perennial All-Star, not a pitcher who dominated for decades, but the man who on October 8, 1956, at Yankee Stadium, retired 27 consecutive Brooklyn Dodgers without allowing a single hit, walk, or error in Game 5 of the World Series and threw the only perfect game in the history of the Fall Classic. Authenticated by JSA. Unframed. Your frame. Your wall. Your way.

🌟 Michigan City, Indiana — The Unlikely Hero — A Journeyman's Greatest Day

Don Larsen was born August 7, 1929, in Michigan City, Indiana — a lakefront city on the southern shore of Lake Michigan where Indiana meets Illinois in the geographic corner of the industrial Midwest. He was not a celebrated prospect. He was not the kind of pitcher that teams built around. He had a 3-21 record one season with the Baltimore Orioles — one of the worst records any pitcher has posted in the major leagues in the modern era. The Yankees acquired him in a large multi-player trade, and when the 1956 World Series came around, Yankees manager Casey Stengel handed him the ball for Game 5 against the Brooklyn Dodgers. Nobody expected what happened next. Nobody in the history of the game had ever done what Larsen did that afternoon.

🏆 October 8, 1956 — Yankee Stadium — The Perfect Game — 27 Up, 27 Down

October 8, 1956. Game 5 of the World Series. Yankee Stadium, the Bronx. Don Larsen retired the first Dodgers hitter. Then the second. Then the third. The third inning came and went. The fifth inning. The seventh. The Dodgers had the best lineup in the National League — Jackie Robinson, Duke Snider, Roy Campanella, Pee Wee Reese. None of them reached base. By the ninth inning, Yankee Stadium was so tense it was nearly silent between pitches. Larsen threw a called strike three to Dale Mitchell, the 27th and final batter. Yogi Berra — the catcher, the pudgy, beloved Yankees backstop who called every pitch — leaped off the ground and ran to Larsen and jumped into his arms. The image is one of the most famous in baseball history. Don Larsen had thrown a perfect game in the World Series. No pitcher before him had done it. No pitcher after him has done it. He is the only one. That New York Yankees pinstripe jersey signed by Don Larsen carries the weight of that afternoon.

The Only One — The Most Unlikely Perfection in Baseball History

What makes Don Larsen's perfect game different from the thirty-plus perfect games that have been thrown in regular-season history is the stage. The World Series. Game 5. With the Yankees leading the series 3 games to 2, against the Brooklyn Dodgers who had won the championship the year before, in front of 64,519 fans at Yankee Stadium. A journeyman pitcher who went 11-5 during the regular season, who had been knocked out early in his previous World Series start, stood on the mound and was perfect. Nothing before it and nothing after it explains it. It simply happened. JSA authenticated. Unframed. Your frame. Your wall. Your way.
