Bid your way into Cal Ripken Jr.'s historic career, by getting in on the action for this game-used bat. Dating from the 1985 season when the Orioles Hall of Fame shortstop belted 63 extra base hits, while driving in 110 runs, this Rawlings bat is a black CR8 Big Stick professional model, with Ripken's name burned into the barrel in block letters. Signs of authentic use include ball contact marks, cleat impressions, tape on the handle, and a crack between the tape and the factory label. Stamped into the knob are the model number "CR8", order number "143", and year "5". The accompanying full photo LOA from PSA/DNA provides a grade of (GU 8.5).
