1994-97 Alex Rodriguez Game Used Bat
<B>1994-97 Alex Rodriguez Game Used Bat.</B></I> Signature model Louisville Slugger C271 is one of the first owned and operated by the incredible A-Rod after his ascension to the Majors at age eighteen. A seeming lock for the 2007 American League MVP Award at the time of this writing, Rodriguez stands poised to rewrite the record books, making any investment in his memorabilia an apparent safe bet. Length of thirty-three and three-quarter inches and weight of twenty-nine and a half ounces are correct for A-Rod's youthful specs, and top experts Taube and Malta characterize use as "outstanding" in their detailed letter of authenticity. They note ball, stitch and cleat marks, with paint transfer and heavy pine tar. Despite the significant trauma, the bat remains solid and uncracked. A heavily-used rookie-era bat from the game's greatest player. Does it get any better? <I>LOA from Taube & Malta.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Bats, Clubs, Sticks, Swords, Rif (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
