Thom Loverro Follows Up On Jersey Mystery

June 23, 2008

Turns out the canceled Sunday kids’ jerseys may be the subjectn of an international probe and part of a future Bond movie!

The Nationals giveaway jerseys, along with ones for the Marlins and Pirates, were seized by customs and have been locked away, according to Major League Baseball spokesman Pat Courtney, though Courtney said they had no explanation for why they were seized. Nationals president Stan Kasten said he was told the same story and that he didn’t expect to ever see those promotional jerseys again.

That would obviously qualify for circumstances beyond the team’s control and kudos to them for giving away free tickets to future games. I wonder if they/the sponsor got their money back for the jerseys?
