Alex Rodriguez used this bat during the September 11, 2009 game against Tampa Bay at Yankee Stadium. The slugger marked the 8-year anniversary of the terrorist bombings of 9/11/01 by going 2-for-4 that night and scored a run in the 4-2 win. A-Rod’s Louisville Slugger C271L model bat is un-cracked and shows heavy use. Many ball marks cover the barrel along with stitch impressions and blue ink transfers. There are pink paint streaks from contact with Mother’s Day bats and a light coat of Mota Stick is on the handle. The date of manufacture “6/24/2009,” length “34,” and weight “32oz” are stamped into the knob. This bat comes with a LOA from PSA/DNA (1B03815) and has been graded a perfect GU 10. There is also a MLB Authenticated hologram (LH617868) for the game use.
