"The Little Penis" 1978 Cleveland Indians Baseball Jersey
We could not resist the dramatic title but we could not resist. You will understand as you read further, as this Bob Owchinko 1978 Cleveland Indians game worn home jersey carries with it some "controversy." His name "Owchinko" roughly translates to "little penis" in Japanese. For the broadcasts of Cleveland Indians games in Japan, the announcers were forced to refer to him as "Bob Smith." You can look it up! It has all the correct tagging and is unrestored (thankfully). We will leave it at that.
