When Robinson Cano came up to the Yankees in 2005, Frank Torre said “his build presence at the plate and smoothness in his swing” reminded him of the great Rod Carew. Cano let his bat speak for him, batting .297 with 14 HR and 62 RBI and just missing out on winning the Rookie of the Year Award. Cano’s rookie year two-tone SAM Cano22 NY model bat is un-cracked and shows moderate to heavy use. The knob and lower handle has been taped to enhance the grip and there are several ball marks and white leather scuffs on the barrel. The bat comes with a full GU 9.5 graded LOA from PSA/DNA (1B12618) for the game use.
