Fred McGriff Game-Used Bat Signed Blue Jays – COA JSA & 100% Authentic Team

Description

Fred McGriff was a quiet assassin who finished only seven homers shy of 500. The future Hall of Famer put heavy use into the offered two tone natural and black model WC136 Cooper bat (35″) during his days with the Blue Jays. The uncracked stick shows a great deal of ball marks and OAL blue stamping remnants have found their way on the bat.  Numbers are written in black felt tip on the knob and the bat’s specs are stamped on. It’s possible that other players used the bat as well. There’s a nice coating of pine tar on the handle for easy grip. McGriff signed the barrel (“9”) in silver paint pen.

Fred McGriff reached the majors full-time in 1987, and hit 34 home runs the next year, his first of seven consecutive seasons with over 30 homers. He emerged as the top power hitter in the American League in 1989, leading the league with 36 home runs, including the first home run hit at the SkyDome, helping the Blue Jays win the AL East division title. His power numbers remained steady in 1990, as McGriff batted .300 and established himself as a consistent producer.
