Stripe on the pants leg.
Please never put CAL RIPKEN and "In Pinstripes" in the same sentence again. EVER.
Made me side to my stomach. :evil:

I would think the stripe on the leg is trim material and not a pinstripe.

Interesting card. It definitely looks like a pinstripe, but I'm hoping like heck that's actually a piece of pants, and not a *gasp* pinstriped jersey. This image has a good view of the stripe down the leg of the home jerseys.

Wrong jersey inserted.
And yet we wonder why they mostly stick to plain white jersey swatches.

Not pants. Card says Game worn Jersey. Its the first error I've seen of this particular Ripken card. I think that is a pinstripe from a Braves jersey (maybe Chipper Jones).

Just because it says jersey doesn't mean it says jersey. I've seen a 2003 Flair Cut of History "Pants" card that had an orange swatch! No team in MLB has orange pants, so it had to be jersey. I bid on it, but it went for more than I was willing to go. I still think it's likely an Orioles pants seam.

Knowing what i know about this product, I'm almost positive it is from a Braves jersey (either chipper jones or andruw Jones), but put my money on chipper jones.

Yes and you see how thick it is versus the pinstripe on the Ripken Final Cut. I interviewed the product manager of the 2001 Fleer Genuine product and he said the set used the last/left overs from jerseys that didn't fit into other products. So, I'm thinking some jersey pieces got mixed up. Some patch pieces even warped the cards.

Keep in mind I'm looking at a tiny pic on my phone screen but is the pic you posted from an auction or do you have the card in hand? From the original pic, it looks like the white on the right side of the black stripe is actually the card stock of the cut-out window and not white jersey. What I'm saying is does the angle of the picture make it appear as though the stripe is thinner than it actually is and the stripe may extend under then cut out window?
Did the Braves ever wear pinstripes?

Ah, thanks for correcting me. Apparently they did wear orange pants. Geez, I'm glad those aren't their everyday uniforms! What an eyesore!
