It is described as a game McGwire worn 1998 All Star jersey. The only problem, however, is that the gamers has 2-tone letters and names on back, not single tone white as this one has. Likewise, the letter style on the MAC is completely incorrect. Similar MAC jerseys are currently listed on ebay as retail shirts, as they should be. These single tone jerseys were sold to the general public. A photo of Greg Maddux in a corrctly manufactured jersey is shown here:
