The road jersey — the CHICAGO lettering across the chest, the uniform worn at Dodger Stadium and in Houston and at Busch Stadium and in every National League city where the Cubs traveled and where Mark Grace still showed up and hit. Signed by Mark Grace — Amazing Grace — the first baseman who was the heart of the Cubs for 13 seasons and whose contact hitting and defensive excellence made him one of the most complete players in the National League through the 1980s and 1990s.

Where the blue jersey is the Wrigley Field alternate — the Friendly Confines, the ivy, the afternoon games — the grey road jersey is Mark Grace everywhere else. In every hostile park in the National League. With the CHICAGO lettering reminding opposing fans and pitchers who he played for. Grace was a player whose value did not diminish on the road, whose contact hitting and glove work traveled and held up regardless of the park or the atmosphere. He hit .303 for his career. He had 2,445 career hits. He played 4x Gold Glove first base wherever the Cubs showed up. The road jersey is where all of that proved out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e🧤 \u003cstrong\u003eFour Gold Gloves — The Most Professional Hitter of the 1990s\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour Gold Glove Awards (1992, 1993, 1995, 1996).

A career defined by the things that sometimes go undervalued in the statistic-focused analysis of baseball: contact rate, defensive reliability, baseball IQ, situational hitting. Mark Grace was the player who made the Cubs lineup work. The grey road jersey — the road version of that career. Signed.
