PEARL, MS – The Mississippi Mud Monsters are giving fans the opportunity to own a piece of franchise history with the auction of their original game-worn teal jerseys. Bidding is now open and will close on Thursday, October 15, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. Central. The jerseys, which debuted during the Mud Monsters' inaugural game on May 8, 2025, at Trustmark Park, were part of the team's original uniform collection and were worn throughout the franchise's first two seasons. Designed by Mud Monsters General Manager David Kerr, the teal Rawlings jerseys feature the team's signature dripping "Creature Flow" lettering, created by The Cirlot Agency, along with a Mississippi state flag on the right sleeve. Unlike replicas or reproductions, each jersey available in the auction is an authentic, game-worn piece from the team's original uniform collection. Fans can browse the available jerseys, review player histories and sizes, and place bids on their preferred numbers. "I still remember when these were just artwork on my computer," said Kerr. "Before we ever played a game, I got to design our first uniforms. On May 8, 2025, I got to stand at Trustmark Park and watch our players take the field wearing them. That's a pretty special thing to get to see." "Two seasons later, they've been worn by a lot of players and seen a lot of baseball. Now we're giving our fans the chance to own those originals," Kerr added. The auction offers fans a unique opportunity to celebrate the early history of the Mississippi Mud Monsters while taking home an authentic piece of the franchise's first two seasons. Bidding closes Thursday, October 15, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. Central. Fans interested in participating can view the available jerseys and place their bids through the team's official auction.
