Offered is an autographed Rob Deer professional model Cooper game used bat from his time spent with the Milwaukee Brewers at the outset of the 1990's. Model number MS20 is stamped on the barrel along with Deer's name in script lettering while Rob has signed the barrel in silver sharpie. Deer's uniform number 45 is also written on the knob in black marker.
This Gwynn finished ash bat currently weighs 32 ounces, measures 35" in length and matches known player factory records with a regular knob and cupped barrel. It exhibits signs of heavy use with ball marks, deeply embedded stitch marks, a medium application of pine tar and a 9" handle crack.
Bat receives 5 points for matching known player factory records, 3 points for use, 2 point for player use traits and loses 1 point for the handle crack resulting in a final grade of MEARS A9.
