Perhaps nothing was more daunting to a pitcher in the 1990's than seeing Frank Thomas swinging his rusty piece of rebar in the on-deck circle. Even more frightening would be to see him set the rebar aside and take up one of his trademark black Rawlings, just like this one, on his way to the plate. Thomas' first ballot Hall of Fame election in 2013 marked the first time a designated hitter made the hallowed halls of Cooperstown. Thomas’ Rawlings 576B model bat is un-cracked and shows excellent use. Thomas’ number “35” is on the knob and the Big Hurt has signed the barrel in silver pen adding his number “35”. This bat comes with a full LOA from PSA/DNA (1B10671) who have graded this bat a GU 9 and a COA from PSA/DNA (AB73613) for his signature.
