Yes, that's my concern. Some spring training jersey and neither he nor the photographer that day thought it was worth the effort to find a real Cards jersey for the photo.

You know, I think I have figured out what was going on with Maris' jersey. If you look at photos from 1968, you see that the Cardinals Bat logo was positioned just below the second button from the top. But you also notice that Maris was in the habit of wearing a jersey about one size too small for his frame. He also had fairly heavier upper arms than other players. As a result, the logo on his too small jersey sat higher up on his chest and when he turned sideways, his shoulder and arm completely obscured the entire logo.
