Nolan Ryan was one of the most dominating pitchers in Major League Baseball history and his 5,714 career strikeouts stand as proof of that. In 1989 while pitching for the Texas Rangers, Ryan was selected to the All-Star Game and recorded the victory for the American League. This Louisville Slugger bat has the labeling period from 1989 and was made for Ryan's appearance in the All-Star Game. It is dated to 1989 due to "Louisville Slugger" written largely on the rear side of the barrel. This style of bat is indicated on Ryan's ordering record. It is a 33 3/4", 37 oz. M110 model bat that is uncracked and mint. There is a near mint autograph on the barrel in black Sharpie.
