Game-used bat from Albert Pujols first season with the Angels. The 9-time All-Star started off slow but regained his footing and finished the season with 30 home runs, the 12th consecutive season of doing so. The Marucci AP5-LDM Custom Cut model bat shows excellent use and is un-cracked. Several ball marks with stitch impressions are visible on the barrel along with blue ink transfers. Cleat marks can be seen and there is the impression from a weighted batting donut. A moderate coat of pine tar is found on the handle and the knob is stamped with the bat's date of manufacture "04/13/12", length "4", weight "2.0" and Pujols' number "5". The future Hall of Famer has signed the barrel in gold marker adding his number "5" and "Game Used 12". Letter of Authenticity from MLB (EK323947) and PSA/DNA (1B04247) who have graded this gamer a perfect GU10.
