Piazza’s involvement makes the 2006 Italy uniforms particularly recognizable to collectors, and period photographs show him wearing this same distinctive royal-blue Italia uniform design during the tournament.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe jersey itself is loaded with details that separate it from an ordinary Italy baseball shirt—the large Italia script, Italian flag patch, colorful inaugural ’06 World Baseball Classic patch, Majestic branding, green-and-white panels and USA construction all capture the look of that first WBC.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn excellent piece for a Mike Piazza collection, Team Italy fan, World Baseball Classic collection, Italian-American baseball collection or vintage Majestic enthusiast, and a great survivor from the tournament that launched the WBC tradition.","brand":"Majestic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53967534326054,"sku":"S","price":157.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/0691\/4854\/files\/21dc45e7-a39f-4dc0-aec2-291220383f06.jpg?v=1790611863","url":"https:\/\/ehtreasures.com\/products\/italy-italia-2006-world-baseball-classic-majestic-jersey-2xl-usa-made-vintage","provider":"EH Treasures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
