Judge played most of his major league career with the Washington Senators during some of the best seasons the club ever had. He was a main stay at first base and a feared slugger. He batted over .300 nine times, and hit .385 in the 1924 World Series as the Senators won their first and only championship. At the end of his career he ranked tenth in AL history in hits (2,328) and doubles (431), seventh in games played (2,129), eighth in triples (158) and at bats (7,786), and ninth in walks (958). He joined the Dodgers in 1933 after being passed up as manager for the Senators after the 1932 season. If you collect Senators game used bats, there is no need to tell you how rare this bat is.
