In the 1990’s no ballplayer was more exciting to watch than Ken Griffey, Jr. The son of baseball royalty, “Junior” brought an unmatched joy and talent to the game that is seen only once in a generation. Entering professional ball at just 17, he was called “The Natural” and by 19 he was a Major League star.
This offered game-ready Louisville Slugger dates from the 1988 season which the 18-year-old Griffey split time between the San Bernardino Spirit and the Vermont Mariners. This striking Hickory finished bat shows only general scuffing and is un-cracked. Junior’s number “24” has been hand written in black marker on the knob end. A great piece that marks the precipice before Griffey embarked on his Hall of Fame-bound career. This bat comes with a LOA from PSA/DNA (1B05333) authenticating that this bat was made “game ready” for Griffey.
