Men's Javier Baez Chicago Cubs Royal Blue Alternate Jersey
No. 9 · Chicago · NL Central

Why It Belongs in Your Lineup
- Button-front design that works as a light layer in April and a standalone shirt in July
- Soft, wrinkle-resistant ballpark polyester that packs flat for road trips and washes clean
- Raised twill-style chest and back graphics with tightly trimmed edges
- Classic fan-friendly fit with a rounded droptail hem that looks clean untucked
Ballpark & Streetwear Styling
For a vintage feel, pair it with straight-leg denim and a worn cap. For a modern look, keep everything else plain and let the jersey carry the color.
For the fan who already owns everything, a fresh colorway is the safe move. It adds to the collection without duplicating it.
Designed for Comfort from Opening Day to October
Standard US sizing, a straight body, and enough length to stay tucked or untucked. It is the kind of jersey you stop thinking about five minutes after putting it on.
The fabric holds color without feeling plastic. It drapes instead of standing away from the body, which is why it works outside the ballpark too.
Built to Last Multiple Seasons
The placket is stitched flat so the front does not curl after a wash. Buttons are smooth, evenly spaced and easy to work with one hand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this jersey have a straight bottom or a rounded baseball hem?
It features the traditional rounded droptail baseball hem with a clean woven locker tag at the lower left front, designed specifically to look sharp worn untucked over jeans or shorts.
Are the buttons spaced closely enough so the front doesn't gap?
Yes. The placket uses reinforced flat-seam construction with properly spaced buttons across the chest and midsection, preventing awkward gapping whether you're sitting in the bleachers or standing up for a home run.
Should I size up to wear a hoodie underneath for April or October night games?
If you plan to layer this jersey over a heavyweight fleece hoodie, we recommend going up one size so the shoulders and chest don't feel restricted. For wearing over a normal short-sleeve tee or solo, order your regular US size.
Do the stitched letters and numbers feel scratchy on the inside?
Not at all. While the exterior features crisp tackle twill with raised stitching for that classic stadium look, the interior backing is finished smoothly so it won't chafe against bare skin when worn solo in the summer.

Care note: Button it up, turn it inside out, wash cold on gentle, and hang it to dry. Skip the dryer. Heat is the enemy of stitched lettering and bright color.
