Here is an original Russell Athletics warm up jersey from the 1998 season. This one is the dark blue jersey with the number "40" on the back. It has the Russell tag intact with the 1998 date. Number "40" was worn that year by Bartolo Colon. Bartolo Colón (born May 24, 1973), nicknamed "Big Sexy," is a Dominican-American professional baseball pitcher for the Karachi Monarchs of Baseball United. He previously played for 11 different Major League Baseball (MLB) teams: the Cleveland Indians (1997–2002), Montreal Expos (2002), Chicago White Sox (2003, 2009), Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (2004–2007), Boston Red Sox (2008), New York Yankees (2011), Oakland Athletics (2012–2013), New York Mets (2014–2016), Atlanta Braves (2017), Minnesota Twins (2017), and Texas Rangers (2018). Colón also played for the Águilas Cibaeñas of the Dominican Professional Baseball League (Dominican Winter League) and the Acereros de Monclova of the Mexican League. Colón was selected to four MLB All-Star Games: for the Indians (1998), Angels (2005), Athletics (2013), and Mets (2016). He won the American League Cy Young Award with the Angels in 2005, when he led the league in wins. He was 42 when he became the oldest player to hit his first career home run.[1] At age 45 during the 2018 season, Colón was the oldest active major league player and the last to have played for the Montreal Expos.[2] He holds the record for most career wins by a Latin American-born pitcher.[3]In his last major-league season (2018), Colón and Rangers teammate Adrián Beltré were the last active players to have played in the 1990s. In August 2022, Colón announced that he intended to retire after the 2022–23 Dominican winter season. However, on October 23, 2023, Colón was drafted by the Karachi Monarchs of Baseball United. This is a very nice jersey from a cool player!
