Awesome bat Ben! I hear this Jeter kid is going to be pretty good, you might want to hold onto this one. He should get the call up from AAA any day now.
Derek Jeter 2012 bat - Used to Tie and Pass Willie Mays on All-Time Hit List / Multiple hits, Career #3,278 - 3,285 including Career HR #255
I picked this one up awhile ago, but been lax on getting posted.
The bat went into use on Sept.9th, when it was used for his Career Home Run #255. For the moment, last of his career. The bat is matched to being in use until Sept. 15th when it was cracked and taken out of play. Jeter collected 8 total hits with the bat (home run and a double), career hits # 3,278 thru 3,285. He also had 6 RBIs, # 1,244 thru 1,249. As a side note, in these games he passed Mel Ott into 13th place on the All-Time Runs Scored list. On Sept. 13th he tied Willie Mays on the hit list. Then on Sept 14th (also the birthday for my two daughters), he passed Willie Mays to move into 10th Place on the All-Time Hit List. It has really great use overall, as Jeter seemed to max out the bat with the wear and tear on it.
Ben
Great use, excellent photomatches, & best of all a terrific history! Congrats on another super Jeter bat, Ben!
Not a biggie to anyone but me, but i got in a Joel Skinner GU cap from his playing days with the Indians. Skinner and I alwas got together during his coaching days with Cleveland, and I have a BP cap of his from his coaching days which he gave me, but figured the player cap would complement mine well.
