1924 Jakie May H&B Louisville Slugger Professional Model Game Used Bat (MEARS A7.5)

Cardinals, Reds and Cubs pitcher Jakie May won 72 games and amassed a 3.88 ERA over the course of his 14-year career, spanning 1917 and 1932. The career National League hurler also managed a pair of home runs and .171 batting average at the plate.

This H&B pre-model number bat displays the pitcher's first and last name in block lettering. The 37-ounce, 34-inch ash instrument matches known factory records and shows various signs of heavy game use, which include medium ball marks, deeply embedded stitch marks, deadwood and swelling.

Final Grade (MEARS A7.5). 5 points for matching factory records, 3 points for heavy game use and a 1/2 point deduction for tape residue on the handle.
