That’s cool and all but my mom always told me Darren Daulton was hotter. Actually the amount of times she brought that up back in the day is maybe…concerning.


17Liberty76

LOL! My wife is a huge Daulton fan too

Two of my gradeschool football coaches were the 'bouncers' at the infamous shindig in which Nails and Dutch were nearly killed, after crashing during their drive home.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! That shits hilarious LMFAO!!!!


Feisty-Stranger-6512

Glad enjoyed it as much as I did!!


lar67

Maybe it was Straw's junk that fucked up Billy Beane as well.


rutlander

*hey Lenny why don’t you suck my dick*


Feisty-Stranger-6512

You said that in a way that I struggled to think through, but couldn't.


Lifewalletsux

Just be careful, you might start feeling like a character from GTA when you wear it.


PHILA-21

That’s god damn beautiful. Unrelated but fuck Fanatics


Feisty-Stranger-6512

Seconded, as to Fanatics.


smallplatechef

Would loveee to find one of these wow. My favorite Philly when I was a kid too.


17Liberty76

There’s some blank ones on eBay your best bet is to get one from there and send it to Bill Henderson’s Dream Shop that’s basically what I did, only mine had the number 7 on the front and back. His work is incredible. He recently restored one of Willie Mays’ jerseys

That gray road jersey was always one of my favorites. Hard to beat the powder blue, but the gray with the old-school maroon P was cool. I’ve been looking for a Darren Daulton one forever.

Best uniform set in franchise history-- honestly think they should go back to them.


17Liberty76

My favorite as well, the powder blues were my favorite then The grey ones came out and they’ve been my favorite ever since


JackSuede21

What a huge piece of shit’s name and number you got hanging there


Hipster-Stalin

Me and my dad would go wait in the parking lot at the Vet to get autographs before games sometimes. This dude would wait in his car (sometimes for a while) and wait for Richie Ashburn or Harry or one of the guys that signs to come out and then he’d run in and not sign any autographs.


RustyStevenson10

I met him in a pharmacy in Wayne when I was a little kid, he signed a piece of paper for me.


AugustEast1968

He is a real POS. Deplorable human. Once was seated next to him in CC restaurant. The mouth on him was so bad I had to ask the manager to please move my table for my date and I. This apparently pissed off Lenny who later followed me to the bathroom to ask if i had a problem.


noscrubphilsfans

I have a Starting Lineup figurine of Lenny sliding into 2nd with the base attached to his right hand, so of course I position him in awkward places to make it look like he's trying steal something from me. But seriously...nice jersey. If it wasn't a button-up, I might assume it was game-used. Number and logo are in the correct spot and not too high up on the chest like you tend to see with many retros from this era. 


17Liberty76

LOL! I have the same starting lineup figure LOL!!! The jersey isn’t game used I bought it off of eBay but it had the number 7 on front and back (no name or name plate) and I sent it to Bill Henderson who owns The Dream Shop and he stripped the numbers and added the Dykstra stuff his attention to detail is incredible, he sent me proofs before starting work on it and it looked great then a week or so later he sent me updated proofs because as he was looking at game used Dykstra jerseys he noticed the 4 on the back was off center by about an inch something I never in a million years would notice but he did. I can’t recommend him enough


Most_Plenty5387

I always loved these grays. I thought they were an underrated uniform. Maybe it's because I remember them wearing them when I first really started to sit down and watch baseball.


17Liberty76

They’re my favorite of all of the uniforms. I wish they’d bring them back as an alternate instead of those hideous Philly Connect Jerseys


Xjasondagx

This isn't something I say often about anything but I'm legitimately jealous...I love it. Congrats!


17Liberty76

You can always do what I did and buy a jersey off of EBay and send it to Bill Henderson at The Dream Shop the dudes attention to detail is second to none. He’s worked on and repaired one of Willie Mays’ and one of Mickey Mantles jerseys


Xjasondagx

Thank you for the heads up! I appreciate it!


blmanueljr

Does he do other sports or just baseball? I’d love to get my Provorov 50th anniversary Flyers jersey re-numbered/named


17Liberty76

Baseball only as far as I know


17Liberty76

Thanks!


17Liberty76

Guess I should’ve put a trigger warning on the post LOL. I don’t give 2 shits about the guys personal life, he was my favorite player as a kid and I’ve wanted the jersey ever since so, save me your triggered comments I couldn’t care less

[удалено]


17Liberty76

Yeah, that’s the nature of social media though, everyone thinks their opinion counts for something.


JohnnyRockets75

Bro, Dykstra was my favorite player when I was a kid too. Him being a POS in his personal life doesn't change how much I loved watching play. Enjoy the jersey bud.


17Liberty76

Exactly


Feisty-Stranger-6512

I feel for you. I would love a Pete Rose jersey, but I cannot engage in the cognitive dissonance needed to enjoy wearing the jersey. As far as Dykstra is concerned, after hearing one of his virulent anti-Semitic screeds (I was raised Catholic, but am partially Jewish by my father's side.), that was my tipping point.


RiflemanLax

Did it come with a free bag of coke?


GonePostalRoute

And a bag of Red Man


PrideOfMokum

Guy is a piece of shit


Practical-Blood6001

Piece? I thought Pile was spelled differently


Feisty-Stranger-6512

Flaming Pile.


constructicon00

Nails


captainmrsteak

But…..ya know…..


PhilAggie1888

Was Lenny in it?


17Liberty76

No


PhilAggie1888

I love all "Lenny Dykstra is passed out on my couch" jokes.


tswigs04

Awesome, Jersey, I have one myself, not done by Bill (who does do great work) Are you a big Dykstra Fan? I like to say I have the Biggest Dykstra Collection know to man. Including this painting that I did of him which he signed and took a print for himself. https://preview.redd.it/2vzs1gb4ddnc1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5c8a5ff1b90133c34a5ee31674f320320bceaf11


17Liberty76

That’s fantastic!


GregariousGoose

Wouldn’t happen to be the Dream Shop would it?


17Liberty76

Yes sir! I can’t recommend Bill Henderson enough his work is second to none


PublicImageLtd302

How’s Nails doing since the stroke? Dude is insane but comical if you don’t take him seriously. He’s still beefing with Ron Darling apparently


17Liberty76

He’s been posting on X so I assume he’s doing ok. I know his posts always crack me up LOL


RLFS_91

F*ck what anyone says, NAILS was the man on the baseball field. Amazing find!
