This tag is from a 1998 Blue Jays home Roger Clemens jersey that was autographed and given to his pitching coach, Mel Queen, after he won the 1997 A.L. Cy Young Award.

Just what the heck does "DK" stand for? Maybe someone in the viewership knows...I'm coming up empty, as I've never seen it before.

Any constructive responses are appreciated.

Although I have no idea what it means, I have seen this identical tag on a Jose Canseco 1998 Jays game used jersey. It is owned by mailman93 on the forum. Good luck!

I doubt it was every worn by Clemens like the auction claims. The wilson flag tag is from 1997 as the black wilson flag tag was used in 1998. The 98DK is not a normal strip tag used by Toronto in 98 either.

Juan might be able to help as he has a complete 1998 uni from Clemens or at least did at one time.

The input is appreciated, fellow American. The white/black issue, however, could just be a tag carryover from the older white style, given it's only one year. Still wondering about the DK, though...right now, for me it stands for DON'T KNOW.:o
