This is the Hickory finish G157 34”-32 oz game bat that appears in the 1980 shipping records. It shows tons of game use with a 4” handles crack and some very slight grain separation on back of the barrel. In addition, it has his number 30 in red dyno tape on the knob as well (+1). He came up with the Reds in 1973 where he played until 1981 having been an integral part of the Big Red Machine during the mid 1970’s. It grades a solid A9 overall and would be a stellar addition to your Reds collection. Final Grade MEARS A9. Base grade 5 points, 3 points for heavy game use, plus one for dyno tape 30 and handle tape (player traits). LOA Troy R. Kinunen / MEARS Auctions
