I’m a Lebron fan. And this makes me a bigger fan. And I don’t know which part of the story does more to make me like him more. The Mattingly shoe, or not driving drunk on his birthday.

From everything I’ve heard and read about this shoe, Lebron is a huge Mattingly fan, and the 23 on the tongue is a tribute to Donnie Baseball, not a reference to his own number.

actually the first thing i thought of when i saw the number 23 was michael jordan. i know it has pinstripes on it, but the number 23 is forever air jordan’s.

If You bought those with the throwback Mattingly’s jersey, you be crushing it early.

I had this story on my blog on Jan 18 and asked: “I wonder if Don Mattingly was consulted?”

According to an SI article, that’s why it’s there.

Those words on the inside of the tongue sounds like a Bleacher Creature roll-call to me…
