Bahama launches collector's edition baseball league shirts

To launch the 2013 baseball season, Tommy Bahama has created two remarkable new shirts that feature iconic photographs of baseball legends Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle. The classic images have been incorporated into dramatic custom designed artwork that wraps around the shirt and includes the player's name, team logo, key stats and landmarks of his home team. Only a limited number of shirts will be produced and each one will be numbered.

As part of the launch, Tommy Bahama in association with Major League Baseball will host a special event "Tommy Bahama Presents an Evening with Willie Mays ," on March 7th in Scottsdale, Arizona. An intimate group of 75 lucky guests will have the chance to meet baseball legend Willie Mays and hear him speak about his life in baseball.
