Lot #122: 2018 Bryce Harper Game Used Victus Pro Reserve KP26 Model Bat Photo Matched To 7 Games Including 2 Home Runs (MLB Authenticated & Sports Investors Authentication)

Description

For the past eight seasons Bryce Harper has put on a show of magnificent bursts of offensive power that is simply awe-inspiring to behold. This bat, photo matched as the one used by Bryce Harper during a 7-game stretch in July-August of 2018, demonstrates the sheer power one of those offensive outbursts could generate.

During this particular seven game stretch against the Mets, Reds and Braves, Harper hit a resounding .462 (12 for 26) along with five doubles and a pair of home runs. The first home run came in the August 2nd game at home against Cincinnati. Harper hit a Raisel Iglesias fastball to deep right-center field for his 26th homer of the season. Four games later in the August 7 game against Atlanta, he took Kolby Allard deep for his 27th home run of the year.

Offered here is Harper’s Victus pro reserve KP28 Maple model bat that was used in that seven-game stretch. This bat displays awesome game use with a cracked handle. The barrel is covered with tremendous ball marks with stitch impressions and leather ball scuffs. Ink transfers can be seen along with bat rack paint streaks and scuffs from contact with other equipment. The lower handle has a spiral of tape to enhance the grip and a coat of pine tar extends into the center brand. A stunning Bryce Harper gamer photo matched to a 7-game, 2-home run stretch in which he played close to .500 ball. The bat comes with an MLB Authenticated hologram (JD198842) for the game use and a LOA from Sports Investors Authentication, who have photo matched this bat to the seven games.
