The St. Louis Cardinals traded for Rafael Furcal midway through the 2011 season hoping to get some pennant insurance – and they did. Batting leadoff, Furcal’s bat helped St. Louis win the Wild Card and then progress to the World Series. Furcal used this bat during the memorable Game 3 where St. Louis’ bats – including this one – destroyed the Rangers 16-7.
This Easton RF15 bat is un-cracked and shows heavy use with many ball marks on the barrel. Bat rack paint streaks can be seen as well a s blue ink transfers. The handle and knob has been with a spiral of black tape and Furcal’s number “15” on a Schutte Sticker is affixed to the knob. To push it over the top, Furcal has signed the barrel of this Game 3 gamer in blue marker. This bat comes with a LOA and COA from PSA/DNA (1B06502 & Z19896) and MEARS who have graded this piece of World Series history a perfect A10. A signed LOA from Rafael Furcal also accompanies the bat.
