Popular and powerful, Willie Stargell was an intimidating left-handed batter. He helped popularize the following of "tape-measure" home runs during the 1960s and '70s. His influence extended into the clubhouse, where he rewarded teammates with "stars" for outstanding performance. His father-figure status earned him the nickname "Pops" and his leadership helped the Pirates win World Championships in 1971 and in 1979, when he shared National League MVP honors. This is a game-worn dugout jacket that belonged to Willie. "Starter" logo on back of neck. "Pirates" across the front and Pirates patch on left shoulder. "Diamond Starter" tag and faded 8 in marker. "Starter" tag also in lining near the button down snaps. Snazzy jacket.
