Lot #543: 2019 Albert Pujols Game Used, Signed & Inscribed Marucci AP5P-LDM Model Mother's Day Bat (MLB Authenticated & Beckett)

Description

Albert Pujols entered the 2019 season at the age of 39 and continued to produce numbers that will make him a first ballot Hall of Famer. Pujols hit 23 home runs and drove in 93 as he continues his march to 700 home runs. Offered here is a special Mothers’ Day pink Marucci AP5P-LDM model bat used by Pujols for a first inning at-bat during the May 12th, 2019 game between the Angels and the Baltimore Orioles in Baltimore.    

Pujols popped out to third base in this at-bat as he faced eight pitches before recording his out. This bat displays light use and is un-cracked. There are marks on the barrel, including a prominent blue ink transfer on the back barrel. The upper handle/lower barrel area has a moderate coating of pine tar and the handle has pink Lizard Skins tape to enhance the grip. Please note that part of the Lizard Skins tape is loose on the lower handle. The knob has Pujols’ number “5” stamped in black and also has stamped the manufacture date “05/07/19” and the bat’s length “4” and weight “2”. Pujols has signed this gamer in black marker on the barrel and inscribed “5” and “Game Used 2019”. This bat comes with an MLB Authenticated hologram (HZ991910) for the game use, authenticating that Pujols used this bat for his May 12th first inning at-bat where he faced eight pitches and popped out to third base in foul territory. There is also a STICKER ONLY from Beckett Authentication (P61563) for Pujols’ signature.
