"Mr. Jim Brown (?) - July" on back "S-E-A____" (Seals?) on jersey any help appreciated - thanks is advance |
Looks like the jersey says “Seattle” and looks pretty modern. I would guess the Seattle Rainiers Minor League team, likely 1950’s or 1960’s, making it post-Negro League.

According to Baseball Reference, there was a Jim Brown who played for the San Francisco Sea Lions of 1946. I had never heard of the team or the player. He's listed as a righthander, but I'm wondering if that could be wrong. He was a position player who did pitch. He's also listed at 53 years old. It's a shot in the dark, especially considering that I found a different uniform design for the Sea Lions in the Google image gallery.

Are you sure that's S-E-A and not S-E-M? Tough to tell on my phone, but I'm not reading that third letter as an "A"
