Albert Pujols capped off his St. Louis years with his second World Championship. In the series against the Rangers, Pujols achieved baseball immortality by hitting three homers in a single game, something only Babe Ruth and Reggie Jackson had done before. This 2011 Marci AP5-M model bat shows moderate use with a repaired handle crack. Several ball marks and stitch impressions are visible along with blue ink transfers and cleat imprints. The impression of a weighted batting donut is present and a light coat of pine tar is on the handle. Pujols has signed the barrel in matching gold pen and added his number “5” and “Game Used WS Champs”. This bat comes with a full LOA from PSA/DNA (1B10912) for the game use and has been graded a GU 9 and a MLB Authenticated hologram (FJ 870523) for the signature.
