I guess this must be opposite day. Bill posts a team issued postcard and I'll post a game used jersey of Grant Jackson.

That's a sweet GU top of Jackson! His 1973 season was probably his best in Baltimore with a 8-0 record, ERA under 2.00 and a WHIP under 1.00
Of course, Orioles fans remember too that Grant was the winning pitcher for the Pirates in Game 7 of the '79 WS
