Sutcliffe was 4-5 with the Cleveland Indians when the Cubs acquired him in a June trade for Joe Carter. What followed was an almost impossible second half: 16 wins, 1 loss, a 2.69 ERA, and a National League Cy Young Award that arrived without serious competition – the first starting pitcher to win the NL Cy Young in a traded season since the award began. The Cubs, propelled by Sutcliffe, Ryne Sandberg's MVP campaign, and the rest of a team that had not appeared in a postseason since 1945, won the NL East division title. Wrigley Field went electric in a way it had not in decades. Sutcliffe pitched for the Cubs through 1991 and remains one of the most beloved players in the franchise's history. This Chicago blue jersey, bearing Sutcliffe's signature and authenticated by Beckett Authentication Services with a BAS certificate of authenticity, is the definitive piece for collectors of Cubs history, Cy Young memorabilia, or 1984 baseball.
