The bat has been photo matched to the September 27th, 2015 game against the Mariners at The Big A. 3-time AL MVP Mike Trout went 1-for-4 that night, scoring on David Murphy’s single in the bottom of the 4th. The Old Hickory MT 27 model bat shows outstanding use and is un-cracked. The barrel is covered with ball marks that include stitch impressions and blue ink transfers. There are cleat imprints on the left and back barrel and the impression of a weighted batting donut is seen. The handle has been taped in a spiral pattern to enhance the grip with red, black and white lizard skin. A moderate coat of Mota Stick is on the handle and the length “33.5” is stamped into the front barrel. The Angels star has signed the barrel in silver marker, adding “15 G/U.” This bat comes with a LOA from PSA/DNA (1B11001) for the game use and has been graded a perfect GU 10, a LOA from Anderson Authentics (1354) for the game use and signature and a PSA/DNA STICKER ONLY (Z02135) for the signature.
