McCann made his Major League Baseball debut with the Atlanta Braves on June 10, 2005. A personal catcher for John Smoltz for most of the 2005 season, McCann hit his first home run in just his second regular-season game, and became the first Braves player in franchise history to hit a home run in his first playoff at-bat on October 6, 2005, off of Astro's ace Roger Clemens. McCann was selected to play in the 2006 MLB All-Star Game in his first full major league season and was also selected in both 2007 and 2008, making him the first Braves' player ever to be selected to the National League All-Star team in each of his first three seasons. Currently, McCann has compiled a career batting average of .297 while hitting 70 home runs in his four years as a Brave.
This bat was manufactured by Hillerich & Bradsby and bears Brian McCann's block letter name on the barrel, indicating that he did not have an endorsement contract with the company at the time. The bat has Louisville Slugger professional labeling consistent with the period 2004-08. The Model Number MC67 appears on the barrel of this bat. The bat has a black finish. It measures 34 inches in length and currently weighs approximately 31 ounces. This bat exhibits numerous game use characteristics, including moderate stick residue extending 7 inches on the handle from the knob, hit marks and ball marks, and a weight ring mark. Wear is evidenced on both the knob and barrel end, where McCann's uniform number 16 has been written in silver marker. This bat is uncracked, and has been signed by Brian McCann in silver marker on the sweet spot.
McCann appears to have a long and productive career ahead of him. Now is a great time to obtain an early bat before he breaks out into superstardom.
