John Smoltz's game-used official Atlanta Braves red home jersey by Majestic, worn on August 19, 2007, against the Arizona Diamondbacks, in the game that he broke the Braves' all-time strikeout record by recording his 2,913th strikeout. The red mesh jersey features "Braves" across the chest above the team's tomahawk logo, and has "Smoltz" and his number "29" on the back, with the "9" signed in silver ink, "John Smoltz." The Majestic Authentic Collection label is screened on the front left tail, indicating size 50. On the left seam is a Majestic "Cool Base" tag, and on the left inseam is a "100% Polyester" tag with washing instructions. The left sleeve bears a black baseball patch memorializing Braves greats Lew Burdette and Johnny Sain, embroidered with "LB 33 JS." In fine condition, with an MLB hologram affixed to the number.
Despite the long line of great Braves pitchers—including all-time legends like Hall of Famers Warren Spahn, Phil Niekro, Tom Glavine, and Greg Maddux—Smoltz's prolonged dominance allowed him to set the franchise's all-time strikeout record on August 19, 2007. He finished his Braves career with 3,011 strikeouts, and his franchise record still stands today. A spectacular, MLB-certified jersey from a momentous day in the career of a beloved Braves hurler.
