Former New York Yankees outfielder Nick Swisher used this Marucci BLS33 model bat during the 2009 Major League season in helping the Yankees win their 27th World Series title. This 34-inch maple bat with a cupped end shows outstanding use with ball marks, scuffs and stitch impressions throughout the barrel and is un-cracked. There are cleat impressions and visible blue bat rack streaks. There is a heavy coat of pine tar on the center brand along with a light coat of Mota stick on the lower handle and a visible donut line that shows evidence of a weighted bat sleeve. That bat handle has been taped in black approximately seven inches in a spiral, then criss-cross pattern all the way to the knob to enhance the grip and Swisher signed this bat in black marker on the barrel and inscribed “Game Used”. This bat comes with a full LOA from PSA/DNA (1B02613) and has been given a perfect “GU 10” grade. Swisher’s signature comes with COA from JSA (S31962).
