Although McGwire ended up with more homers, Sammy Sosa won the NL MVP as he led the Cubs to the postseason for the first time since 1989. This now iconic road gray Cubs jersey was introduced in 1997 with a then brand new walking cub sleeve logo that they still wear today. The “CHICAGO” word mark underwent a slight change in 1999, making this a two year style only. The Harry Caray patch (worn throughout the ‘98 season) and Jack Brickhouse “Hey Hey” memorial patch (added after Brickhouse’s passing on August 6, 1998) date this jersey to the later part of the 1998 season. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you need rare this top of the line 90s authentic for your collection, snag it now before it’s gone for good!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e**bat\/ball not included**\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grail Snipes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47521784889507,"sku":null,"price":289.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0470\/3672\/7459\/files\/A6F3DAAF-1386-434B-BF83-A1EE0CF9EF81.jpg?v=1775003056","url":"https:\/\/grailsnipes.com\/products\/chicago-cubs-sammy-sosa-1998-mlb-baseball-jersey-40-medium","provider":"Grail Snipes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
